    BMW i3 advice?

    I plan to detail a friend's BMW i3 in a few weeks. Anyone with experience on these? Is there anything special about claying or DA'ing those ABS panels or the carbon fiber roof?

    Thanks,
    Rich

    Not that I have heard. Perform a test spot and check the results.

    Report back and share your thoughts.

    How did it turn out? I have anM4 that I will polish n then apply a sealant. A bit hesitant to polish (using a DA orbital to polish)
