The BMW dealer called me at lunch and said that beautiful black 745i Sport has some bad scratches on the hood and trunk! Oh boy...what to do. I went over at lunch and sure enough, there were numerous scratches apparently caused by grit of some sort in one of the microfibers I used last night. To make matters worse, the dealer had a prospective owner coming to see the car...panic!
Okay, we stalled the prospect and I came back late this afternoon to see what the repair would be. The dealer wanted to re-wool/compound the hood and trunk or wet sand/compound. Not only a dusty mess, but time consuming.
Well, says I, ... I have this new Pinnacle XMT 360, so let's try that first. I used it with a Meguiar's #8006 pad on the Metabo rotary and started at 800 rpm. Didn't see any results and was getting disappointed, so I spun the rotary to 1,500 rpm. Voila! They were disappearing. It took some time, but the scratches were flat out of there.
Then, I figured this black beast of a Bimmer deserved some Souveran paste, so I graced the car with it...and here's the result.

Pure blackness!
Some finished outside shots...I won't get tired of looking at this ride!
