Menzerna Polishing Compounds of Germany has set new standards for workability, uniformity, performance, and quality. Why else would Mercedes Benz use Menzerna polishes to perfect the finishes on their brand new vehicles?

BMW 545i Black - Finished, Parked Outside, Sold

The "problem child" black 545i that had a terrible finish when I started was finished.

Yesterday, the dealer parked it outside and a client came to look at it. His first question: has this car been re-painted? Answer: No, my detailer did this. Next question: How Much?...dealer gave him a price and he bought the car.

Here's how it looked outside:



He also drives a black Sequoia V8 that he wants detailed (the dealer agreed and we set a price for this spring).

Nice day for all of us.

Toto

You did an unbelievable job on that car Toto. If the client saw what it looked like before I don't think he would have purchased it.

Thanks Gary and Abrcrombe!

The dealer had a great weekend: sold a 545i, a 745i, and took a deposit on a 745Li.

He's off to the BMW Leasing auction in Milwaukee for a fresh supply.

See Ya!

Toto

Thanks Folks!

Hey kansasdn: the 330 Xi is a nice ride so far! It handles well in the snow too which is a plus at this time of year.

Should know by the end of the week what the dealer bought at the auction so they can be "Toto-ized"

See Ya's....

Toto
