    BMW detailed with #82, #7 and #16

    Last saturday I detailed the BMW one of my friends. Its a silver painted car. The paint was quite ok, so I decided to use the #82 instead of #80.
    - Washing with Meguiars Shampoo Plus, Microfiber-Mitt (T-B Method)
    - claying
    - drying with guzzler
    - #82 with rotex and white LC-Pad
    - #7 applied with a grey LC-Pad and removed with Megs terries
    - 2x #21
    - #16
    Engine cleaned with APC (1:10) and after with Hyper dressing (1:4).

    Very nice Bulla, the silver looks very reflective and good depth. Silver is hard to do, like white. I like silver and man it takes time and lots of work to give it some depth.

    Thanks for sharing.

    @Nica: yes of course. But the hardest work has the machine. But with the rotex the polishh of a car is much more easier than the former hand-jobs.

    Looks good. Do you have outside pics? How about the engine pics? Hood shot is awesome.
