Re: Deep Gloss: Jet Black 2010 BMW M3 - HACKED!
Continued.....
Paint Correction:
As always, a test section was isolated in order to identify the best method for correcting the paint while removing as little clear coat as possible.
MANY different polish/pad combos were used. This paint was different than the soft Jet Black bimmer paint of yesteryear which is not necessarily a bad thing considering how ridiculously soft it used to be but, this paint presented its own set of obstacles such as:
I used several different combos with my Makita 9227 and I was not getting the results I wanted… Medium pad/polish combo did not correct the paint so I decided to try wool.. The wool just tore the paint up and created more work just to clean up after the wool. Anything I tried with my Makita delivered sub standard results
What I realized was that this paint responded better to a DA machine so, out came my new Megs V2 DA… Viola, we are in the money
The process I dialed in was as follows:
Megs 105 with orange LC pad (two times)
Menzerna SIP with white LC pad
Menzerna 106ff with black LC pad
Menzerna 85rd with red LC pad
91% IPA wipedowns (multiple) to ensure true correction
Some in process shots
Test Spot Before:
Sun validation of my process on the test spot (prior to 106/85rd):
Half and Half shot after all compounding / polishing steps (please excuse polish residue at bottom of panel):
After all paint correction was completed the vehicle was given a final wash to ensure all polishing oils/dust etc was removed.
Exhaust Tips: Never Dull & Surf City metal polish
Used 303 wipes for the 1st time
Tires/Wheels/Arches
Tires: Surf City Beyond Black Dressing
Have to get the full tire dressed right…OCD much?
Rims: Optiseal
Arches: Chemical Guys Bare Bones
Rubber Seals: 1Z Gummi Pfledge
Windows: Surf City Clearly Better
Engine: ONR wipe down/ dressed with CD2 engine dressing
Chrome bagding, appliqués, trim: Duragloss 501
Exterior plastic trim: Ultima or Duragloss 253

Jason..I would have blown chunks on his hood after seeing that! Great save, buddy, great save! Hopefully he takes your bill and shoves it up the dealer's ass!

Wow.... what a disgrace. Maybe send some pics to the dealer and so called detailer showing what a real detailer can do. I've only machine polished a car once and I didn't even leave swirls or holograms.
