This car was in need for some love. I did just that! Spent hours upon hours to correct the paint. It was very difficult paint to work with, I had to give it everything I had to get it to get it to my liking.

As you all know black is a beast of its own but once it is tamed it is so beautiful.

Kenny made a comment to me when picking it up. He said the first picture you sent me look like you repainted my car. That made me feel pretty good.

Kenny was stoked about the car! I hated it by the end of the day and a half.

Also I need comments on my photos! Are the getting better? Any suggestions?
 
Amazing turnaround, you absolutely saved that car!

Thanks for sharing,

keep doing the nice job.
 
Great turnaround! I'm glad Kenny didn't have to die in this episode.

What was your process/products used for this paint correction?
 
Looks amazing! Nice pictures. Thanks for taking the time and copying and pasting each
 
Awesome job!

I bet the customer is so pleased with his new looking car, he'll want to take it to the auto car wash every week to keep it cleaned up, LOL.

You did have a talk with him about his washing habits, right?
 
So funny.

Awesome job by the way!
 
Great job and great turnaround!

Not a critique on the photos, more of a question. Did you use any tire dressing? Sometimes the gloss on the tires is what "pulls together" the whole picture of a shiny car, especially a black one.

This paint was HARD! I had to use a yellow CCS pad and M105 and really had to lay into it. Makes me want to get some foam cut 101

Thank you
[QUOTE="Vortech5.0, post: 1122617, member: 52476"]Very nice work. I'm curious as to your approach on and around these body moldings? Whats your technique? I have some similar ones that I don't really know how to go about buffing.[/quote]
Around the trim I just put some tape and went to town about and below them. Even using a spot buff pad to get more heat and rotation needed up against the trim.

[QUOTE="smack, post: 1122618, member: 24544"]Very nice work bringing that black BMW back to life! Looks great![/quote]
Thank you
