    modified bmw gets a correction and cquartz

    Well, this was my first time ever using cquartz. this car received a 3 step correction. total time was 21 hours. cquartz was a pain in the but at first until I spoke to a few forum members which helped me out alot. the instructions on cquartz says 5-10 minutes dry time for 81F . that didnt quite work out. I ended up trying 15/20/25/30min I found that the 30 min dry time was what I was looking for. after I got that down everything else went smooth. I really liked the way d301 finished down on this car. I will let you guys decide which one looks better 301 or cquartz. I will keep my personal opinion to myself until i get a few responses

    products used:
    LOTS of microfibers
    GG DA
    megs mf cutting and finishing discs
    megs m105, d300, d301.
    megs aggressive clay
    surbuffs
    UTTG
    opt protectant plus
    vac
    vx5000 multiple attachments
    popsicle sticks
    apc plus
    IPA
    dawn soap
    2 buckets/grit gaurds
    microfiber wash mit
    wheels brushes/daytona speed brush
    pad brush
    ONR as clay lube
    terry towels for steam machine (vx5000)
    cquartz
    reload
    detailing q-tips
    elbow grease
    and i dont remember everything else lol

    before

    here, if you look closely I taped off a square section which was compounded out. you can see if you look closely "the halogen bulb on the left is showing the side that was compounded and the one to the right is where there are imperfections. those with a eye for detailing will see it"

    I'm delighted it turned out well for you. It was nice chatting last night. Wait till the owner goes to wash it; it will blow his mind!
