[Anthony@MFAD]

Hey all!

Hope you're all getting ready to fill those bellies with Thanksgiving turkey, Ham, & all sorts of other delicious food!:hungry:
As well as preparing your wallet for all the stuff you'll be buying Friday! :laughing:

So here's a cool M3 we worked on recently. One of the first few cars we've polished & coated in our new shop! Received a 2 step , OptiCoat Pro, & Gloss Coat application.
List of products used:

-ONR
-3D BDX
-Speedy prep fine clay mitt
-Wheel woolies
-LA's Totally Awesome

-M100
-M205
-OptiCoat Primer Polish
-MFCP
-MFFP

-OptiCoat Pro
-Gloss Coat
-FlyBy Forte
-CQuartz DLux


So as always, we start with he wheels. Which as for any BMW, are always full of brake dust!

BDX took care of that no problem & LATA took off that nasty dealership tire dressing.

The car was then washed, decontaminated, dried & taped up for polishing.

Paint wasn't in terrible condition but there were a good chunk of sanding marks. Paint was pretty hard too so that did not make removal of these defects any easier.
