Hey guys! Very excited about this post, as the transformation throughout was truly a sight to see. I was contacted by a member over on M5board to do some work on his Interlagos Blue M5. What a beautiful color it is, my all time favorite on these M cars. The vehicle in question is a 2006 model year with barely 16,000 miles on the odo. The client picked the car up in April from a dealer who had obviously "attempted" to run a buffer over it.

After I viewed the car in the sun, we went over various plans of attack and settled on a full multi stage correction. Once the correction was complete, the work was locked in and protected with Optimum's Opti Coat.Im the MAN

The pictures will show the extent of the damage inflicted by the unskilled stealership employees. RIDS, rotary buffer swirls, even pigtails were present in some areas from grit trapped under their buffing pad. Speaking of RIDS, they were abundant on every single panel, and the paint was very hard. The defect removal portion on this car was probably the longest of any car I have worked on, and required almost 30 hours. I was making 5-7 passes per panel to fully remove the RIDS.

As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words.......which begs the question, how many words are 100 pictures worth???? You be the judge.

Man, what a gorgeous car! You really did that color justice by getting the paint right. I am a huge fun of the Flex 3401 with wool combo. Nice work and thanks for sharing.

Hi Speedfreak81: Congratulations on the awesome job you did on this beautiful BMW M5! This is also one of the best pictorial of a full paint correction that has been on this forum or any other forum for that matter. It truly shows what can be with the right knowledge and the right products. I wish I lived closer as I have a beautiful 1972 Chev Nova that is a similar color to the BMW that needs some paint correction. I am trying to learn to do it myself, however, I'm still reluctant to try it. I would pay someone to do it but I don't believe there is anybody in my part of my country I would trust to do a paint correction.

Again, great job man, keep up the great work.
