i am AUTOS - X5

[Andr3wilson]

Hey guys,

Been a while since I posted a detail, but this was a fun one so i post!

Brand new X5 - 200km on the clock. We were aiming for the +95% correction with a two step correcting polish and jewelling, followed with a custom tailored COSMIC paint coating.





Two Bucket wash with CG Citrus W&G



Washing out the wheel wells



There was either no dealer prep, or rip off dealer prep. They did not do a fallout remover so the car really needed a good decon.



Wiped on IRON SERUM, then rinsed off. Next clayed.



There was all sorts of marring all over the car. Mostly light stuff - factory and dealer wash.





To correct, we utilized POLISH ANGEL MASTER POLISH II on a yellow pad. Then to prep for coating, INVINCIBLE primer on a black finishing pad, then COSMIC paint coating.





A deeper scratch I sanded out





Certain parts, we switched out the rotary to a Rupes 15 with the new MF cutting disc and MASTER COMPOUND; rupes MF disc is SUPERB!!











After INVINCIBLE primer polish



The trim pieces I taped over was to protect the Xpel PPF. It was installed the day before coming to me, and I didn't want the edge of the pad catching it and pulling it up by accident.







Next applying the COSMIC paint coating. The coating was tailored to the 416 Carbon Black BMW paint for added depth and colour intensity.







Winter rims were removed, cleaned and coated with VIKING COAT. A more durable, salt resistant version of COSMIC



Back on the ground





FINAL SHOTS:





















5 mins before delivery. Customer was very pleased!

Andre amazing as always. How many coats of Cosmic did you have on there? I know you said a friend of yours was going to do a four coat Cosmic application sometime this spring, can't wait to see that insanity.

Nice job!

What kind of pad is that on the LHR15? Wool?

Also, is polish angel rapidwaxx a coating or polymer sealant?
