So this will be my first show off thread at this forum
I got the chance to detail this piece of art, and boy, it needed it badly!
there were scratches, swirls, water spots and in general signs of poor maintenance.
It had gotten a respray 6-7 years ago, so it wasn't a typical hard bmw paint, actually a little to the soft side.
I started of with a foam rinsing by using gyeon foam, then washed it with gyeon bath. then i used gyeon tar to get rid of all the, well, tar haha
dried it of withe gyeon waffle dryer.
used a noname claydisk to get the paint completely clean and smooth.
weapon of choice was rupes lr15, duetto and mini. awesome machines!!
The pads i used was meguars dmc, rupes yellow and Soft Buff Foam Finishing Pad.
Compound and polish was meguairs d300 and m205.
wax and sealants was two of my favorits - Wolfgang deep gloss paint sealant and pinnacle souveran, killer combo !

But take a look and let m know what you guys think
!!sorry if there are misspellings and phrases that dosnt sense, i'm danish!!

Very nice! That black finish is shining and reflecting like crazy! Well done. Love that BMW as well...
 
The Wolfgang sealant and Souveran are two products I've been wanting to try. Looking amazing!

thanks buddy :) i must say that i'm pretty pleased with the result. Pinnacle Souveran is just the perfect choice for a dark coloured car ;)

And thanks to you too :) give them a try, you won't be disappointed :xyxthumbs:
but unfortunately, Souveran has poor durability. it will only last for about 4 weeks. that's way i put wolfgang sealant on as well :) but if you like waxing, it shouldn't be a problem ;)
 
When it gets warmer I usually wax every month lol.
 
Looking good Vincent! That is a beautiful example of an e30 Alpina. Nice work.

I also love that LSP combo as well.

Thanks for sharing.
