referral BMW black

[richy]

This car is owned by the wife of the fellow that I polished his silver Bimmer about a month ago:neglected silver bimmer
It's a 97 and had multiple marks on it that needed some touch up. I did not have the time on this one to wet sand them flat so I just compounded them down the best I could. Worked pretty well considering. They had a white Dalmation..you can see the dog hair on the mats; it was all over inside. It actually vacuumed up easier than I thought. The wide stripes have returned too as you can see. I tried using RMG 2 ways on this car: applied and worked in via UDM/gray pad and applied by hand and worked in with UDM/gray pad. The hand application is faster and got just as good results and saved time. I was losing my light so the afters don't give it justice.
The Process:
wash
clay with Riccardo
wheels done with Eagle one (when dry) and followed up with ARO
tires with DP gel (love that stuff)
wheels sealed with DG 105
multiple touch ups
compound with rotary using white wool pad and UCCL
compound with rotary using white pad and 106ff
RMG applied by hand (See above) and removed via UDM and gray pad
FMJ applied/removed by hand
Collinite 476s applied/removed by hand.
vacuum interior
303 applied to interior
Mothers back to black on exterior trim, applied with foam brush
Stoners IG on glass

Goose..thanks. I'm not real pleased with the photography on this one. I can't wait for the new fuji s8000fd camera to come out...the quality of my pics should improve when I get the new camera.

Another impressive detail Richy. Looks great. Those wide stripes are growing on me. Where did you get that attachment for your vac? I remember you saying it has a brush on it (from another thread). One more question. What is UCCL? I've been racking my brain.
