Here's one that I did for a local Mexican restaurant owner. He is a good friend of mine and has always treated me well. Last week I was in there eating when he tossed me the keys and said "Detail!". So I did!

All he wanted was a minor detail due to the pollen we are having. The inside was not bad at all. So, the interior got a wipe down and Pinnacle's Leather Cleaner & Conditioner on the leather. The windows got cleaned then the carpets vacuumed. The outside got a bath with Pinnacle's Body Work Shampoo and then lightly polished out with Advanced Finishing Polish via PC and EDGE2K Green Pad at a #5 setting. Lastly, the paint received a layer of Pinnacles Signature Series II. This was the first time I've used this and wow, looks deep and wet on black. The wheels got a coat of DP's Spray Surface Shield and then tires a coat of Pinnacle's Black Onyx Tire Gel.

Thanks!!!
(Oh yeah, I've discovered a way to put multiple pics into one pic!)

I love those M3s. No, I mean, I really love them. The new bodystyle will have a tough time competing with this classic.

Great work on this one Justin, but you should ask the owner if you can take off that awful dealership sticker on the boot!

How would you compare Pinnacles Signature Series II to Souveran Paste?

same question but vs liquid souveran :) especially on a black car

Lord guys. They are all good. To tell you the truth, liquid Souveran is still my favorite. I can put it on by machine in no time and the look is awesome.

SSII vs. Souveran.......
Not that big of a difference.......I'd still take Max Wax over either for the money!

GREAT JOB ON THAT BIMMER!

Looks super Justin!

I've got a black 545i that is paint job from Hel! It's what I consider to be a defect from the factory: all the surfaces (horizontal, vertical, plastic panels, metal) have minute "pock marks" thousands of them. I've tried wet sanding at 3,000 grit, 2,000 grit, wool pad, cutting pad with 3M extra cut (which is 1 step above toothpaste IMO)...no luck. So, I'm gonna finish this nasty car as best as I can tomorrow and the dealer will sell it at a discount.

Anyway, great work Sir! Give yourself a Gold Star for workmanship.
