Bleached BMW 540i...well to me it is

Someone poured bleach over this black Bimmer (at least that's what my eyes said) and I ended up with a white one!

Actually, this car has over 120,000 miles and it's in pretty good condition. A new owner is picking it up tomorrow and he'll be surprised by the great condition and appearance.

Here's some before pics. We are putting new front bumper moulding on and changing wheels and tires before he gets the car, so I didn't pay too much attention to those areas.

Corrected with wool, polished with foam, waxed with Meguiar's #21 Synthetic (reducing my inventory of that stuff)













Next up is a beautiful 645 Ci in Titanium Silver...stunning lines and the car is in pretty good shape.

Toto

did you happen to use Clorox bleach on it or something?
Looks great! I know it's hard to work on white, can't really see much without good light...

Nice work. The best body style the 5 series has had in my opinion. E39 forever.

For as much as I've spent recently it would have been cheaper to airmail my car and let the Toto rock it out. Your work always is impressive. I mostly shake my head and say WOW! at your pics.

Simply good work Toto.

The new 21 is supposed to be awesome. I want to try it and the then 95 and 105 compounds. NXT 2.0 is supposed to put a hurt on the boutique sealants/waxes. This is what I'm hearing from non biased beta testers.

Once again, nice correction.

That's beautiful depth, reflection, and shine on that white. It's rare to see white look that good. Always wondered what white would look like Totoized.

Great Job!
The wool works better for those types of corrections?
