First paid detail: 2006 BMW 330i

[calhoun1]

Well after seeing what I did on my 2009 Black G8, my wife's co-worker asked if I would do her BMW. Since she asked nicely, and offered to pay I decided I would go for it.

My process:
Wash with Megs GC
Simple Green with Daytona Speed Master brushes on the wheels.
Clay with Megs aggressive clay
Wash again with Megs GC (2 bucket both times)

Cleaned the interior as the water dried from the cracks.
Used 303 for the vinyl
Stoners IG for the windows
Megs 2-step leather cleaner and conditioner for the seats/leather (very pleased btw)
Shampooed carpet with Bissel Little Green Machine

Polishing with PC7424
SIP with orange CCS
106FA with white CCS

Clear was actually fairly hard and the SIP was a good choice to get the swirls out.

Washed again to get the polish dust off.

Applied Wolfgang DGPS and let sit for 12 hours
Next morning put on some Poorboys Black Hole Glaze followed by Wolfgang Fuzion.


This car definitely showed improvement and I felt great seeing the final product. Every car I do reminds of why I love doing this. It makes me happy to see and hear the reaction. Now without further ado, the before:

I loved the interior as well. I was very pleased with how it turned out. I think the seats turned almost a full shade darker!

It was SIP. No need to wet sand at all :buffing:
