Detailed: 2006 BMW 750 Li (XMT Review)
Hey guys....glad to be back at work!
Here's a Bimmer that's owned by a local real estate broker. He is very good to me in that he lets me detail other clients car's at his building and does not charge me a dime. He will not even let me give him a freebie or discount! So I decided to take care of this awesome car of his and give it the works.
This is a total Pinnacle XMT and Souveran job. This will also be a review for these products since it's the first time I've used them.
Pinnacle XMT #2 Swirl Remover/Polish
(EDGE 2K Green Med. Cutt Pad at a #5 setting)
It was 96 in the sun today and this stuff rocked! The car had moderate swirls from the dealer so #1 wasn't gonna do it. With one pass, I knew I had my new arsenal of swirl removers. Took everything out...including some heavy water marks and sap. There was very low dusting; I didn't have to use a QD to remove any of the product. The smell was amazing! Key-Lime is what I'm guessing. Made my work alot more enjoyable.
Final Opinion:
One of the best swirl removers I've used to date. I can tell it was designed for the PC and works awesome under high heat conditions.
Pinnacle XMT Glaze
(EDGE 2K Blue Polishing Pad at a #3 setting)
Once again, I was impressed. The glaze had a super thin form and there was that smell again. GRAPE! Nice. I was amazed on how far such a small amount would go. I'd say about 5-6 quarter sized amounts did this large car. It filled in all of the remaining defects and gave the car a glow. I have never seen a glow like this with my Meg's #7. Left a super-slick finish and a reflection that I've never seen on white before.
Final Opinion:
Easy to use. Works well in the heat. Give awesome depth and glow!
Pinnacle Liquid Souveran Wax
(EDGE 2K White Finishing Pad at a #3 setting)
Now I've heard alot of hype about this wax. I was more anxious to use it than any product. It was a thin liquid wax to me. This made me a little hesitant on how it would go on but had no problems. Only took about 5 quarter sized amounts to do the car. Smell wasn't that good but so what! The results were dramatic. It gave the car a reflection that Meg's #26 had never done on white. Was so easy to remove too.
Final Opinion:
THE new wax in my kit. The hype is true. Went on easy and came off easy. Gave amazing results and a 20 dollar tip!

. Another friend has a new 750 as well and same thing, loves the car, despises I-drive with a passion and he actually punched the dash one night lol. You kinda get used to it, but it's so annoying/irritating.
