  3. Re: Accidental discovery resulted in showroom-matte seats

    This is the kind of reply I was hoping for here!

    -You didn’t say what type of Leather

    It’s BMW Dakota leather from a 2017 M240i with 50,XXX miles

  4. Accidental discovery resulted in showroom-matte seats

    I have tried countless leather cleaners over the past 6 months trying to get these seats showroom fresh and so far, nothing had made a dent. They are ‘clean’ but stay quite shiny.

  5. Re: Thoroughly impressed with Optimum Wash & Wax

    Edited! Sorry, I never really see the bottle so I misspoke.
  6. Re: Thoroughly impressed with Optimum Wash & Wax

    Yes it does, except for the trunk and rear bumper. Those both have a bit of grit if you really feel for it.
  7. Re: Thoroughly impressed with Optimum Wash & Wax

    No noticeable fallout on the paint or glass. The wheels need some clay and/or ironx, but those aren't too bad yet either!
  8. Thoroughly impressed with Optimum Wash & Wax

    Through my automotive career, I've had access to just about everything except the permanent ceramic sealants. I've had waxes worth $$$, sealants worth the same... in the end, I was happy with a $40...

  10. Re: Leatherique PSA - awful user experience, but at the fault of my own

    The torn parts have been replaced with brand new material.



    I suppose that's the route I should have went with, I just read so much how it should be really slathered on. Definitely regretted...
  11. Re: Leatherique PSA - awful user experience, but at the fault of my own

    Believe it or not, the new seat bottoms are aftermarket synthetic leather.
  12. Leatherique PSA - awful user experience, but at the fault of my own

    I used Leatherique rejuvenator approximately April, 2015. I did what I *thought* was right for my first use of Leatherique. I applied liberally and then threw plastic seat covers on while leaving my...

    Re: Softest. Paint. EVER!

    Was it solid black? Because solid black takes about 50% more work to polish than Tesla's metallic Obsidian black, and it's always tempermental.



    Because these paints get so badly etched. The...

    Re: Softest. Paint. EVER!

    Maybe I'll get flamed for this, but in my honest opinion, HD paint correction supplies have a lot of resilient non-silicone fillers in them. I can "correct" solid black paint and then get a rotary...

    The Rupes machines break down polishes much slower than a rotary will. That's never good in a production setting.
