Good friend of mine recently bought a 2008 BMW 335i (convertible twin turbo). He mentioned it had some swirls and need some attention. The interior needed a light cleanup as well. Only problem was, didn't have time for a full correction. Had about 8 hours total with the car.

Did the interior and wash / decon on the exterior. Put on the LED lights and it was a rotary buffer trail nightmare! Looked light somebodys first day polishing. Or I hope it was. Can't get much worse I don't think.





Definitely did not have time for a 2 step correction. Had to give it all I could with 1. Found this paint a bit on the hard side while doing test spots and settled on:

Flex3401 + LC Tangerine + Menz SIP

The test spot in question. Buffer trails stopped in their tracks



A 50 50 shot (reminder - this was not a full correction - just displaying the level of correction I was getting on this vehicle with 1 step only)


Here is the hood from the angles shown earlier




Once again the hood before



and after...

Paint was protected with Blackfire Wet Diamond sealant

Looks like someone was learning how to use a rotary on that poor BMW.

Good job removing the holograms and the level of correction with that 1 step.
 
Having swirls is an understatement for that car! You made a dramatic improvement for a 1 step process. Maybe your friend will give you more time with the car to make it look perfect.

Great work!
 
Man, I got to get my hands on some Blackfire. I hate when you know how much better it can be if you just had the time. great work nonetheless.

Looks more like someone was learning how not to use a rotary on that poor BMW. :D

Man that thing was just hammered, very nice work for sure.
 
Nice job with the 1-step! It's too bad you didn't have time for a full correction because it would have turned out to be amazing.
 
Man, that is classic holograms 101! lol

Nice work with the one-step. :xyxthumbs:
 
Mr.Sparkle does it again. Looks like the dealership was trying to create a secret map with all those trails. Amazing.
