1972 Bmw

It a track car
It is a 1972 bmw 2002 tii
Color of paint is called colorado

The Wash

Optimum car wash. I also clayed at the same time, wash panel rinse. Rewash and clay hose off. There were some contaminants that remained. That would not come off.
Dried with the guzzler.

The Interior

Vaccummed carpet/ seats/ air vents. On the vinyl (25 year old vinyl) I used the DP Interior Surface Protectant. I was amazed at what it did.

The Gameplan

The edge green pad and PB PwS. 2-4 pea size dots per section. Remember those contaminants that remained after claying. Well they are gone. PwS worked great.

The Final

Pinnacle Liquid Souveran applied to whole car then removed

Tires received NoTouch

Looks like they had house guests.

Wow, I'm really amazed how it came out. She's beautiful! I would love to have something like that. Awesome work!
Is that the original paint?
DP Interior Surface Protectant, is it dry to the touch?
Reflection is awesome!

Sweet! What a great job you did. I can't believe the interior looks so good after you finished. I've always like that style BMW. How long did you wait to but the wax on top of the PWS? The PB PWS is the Polish with Sealant, right? Did you apply anything on the inside door panels?

The DP looked like when he just put it on. It looks wet when first put on. After a little bit it will dry and go matte. =/
