    Black BMW 745i with Toto Word Art Compound

    Yep, another Black Bimmer....this 745i was a local trade with a not-too-good paint condition: swirls, rear bumper smack that cracked the paint, etc.

    Here's some paint condition pics:

    Door Panel shot is indicative of the rest of the car





    Time to start the "Toto" process. Actually, I might start drawing the product I'm going to use as a reference down the road.

    Wet Sanded bumper with 3M TriZact 3000 grit





    In process work on the bumper



    Finished compounding the rear area of the car and polished with Menzerna IP





    On to the door panels on the passenger side



    One panel compounded



    Both panels compounded



    I'm going to use IP after I finish the passenger side with compound and power wash the dust off the car. I wanted to try the rear end of the car with IP, so I used ONR and a bucket (that stuff is great and I'll be ordering a gallon tomorrow for winter use).

    See You Folks Later

    Very nice Toto. Did the wet sanding take care of the cracked paint or do you have a different plan?
