In for Full Correction.... 2008 BMW 550i. This was definitely a project over 4 days as you will see it was hammered. Hard to pick up in pictures but this car had deep gashes in the paint all over. Went a little overboard on the photos so I apologize but just wanted to give a more in depth write up than usual. Shared some pics of some of the products and steps taken. Also had to do A LOT of wet sanding around the vehicle....(paint depth gauge was at frequent use) Also to note.... the owner had taken his car to 3 different detailers before coming to me. They were all talked up and said to have done amazing work. You will see in the pictures the type of work that was literally performed a few months prior.... These are the ones that make it tough to get through to people once they have had such bad experiences but also rewarding when you can fix the mess that was brought to you to put a serious smile on the owners face finally... (minus the fact that it was raining at pick up) Products/tools: chem guys maxi suds II Citrus wash Sonax FE (Phil) Schmitt Wash Mitt form of Iron defiling product (experimenting) speed prep towel chem guys foam gun daytona speed master (various others) Wheel Woolie (Phil) degreaser Metro Master Blaster (Phil) loving my new drying towels as well (thanks Phil) Correction steps: tools: Rupes 21 Rupes 75 Griots 6 inch compound/polish M101 D300 M105 Menz 85rd pads: Meguiars MF cut LC hydro Tangerine 80 ppi finishing (Phil's) LSP: Blackfire on we go......

Trunk lid.... much better hood has seen better days.... good to go for some wet sanding love this thing note that I had removed the second line of tape so the corrected side starts a tad over cool close up on defects 50/50 This ones for you Bob.....

Forget the apron pic Mark/Paul show the 650 lbs deadlift pull the other day.................... I could roll 650 lbs around on the floor.............. or take off the plates(Provided the bar was on a squat rack at the time) one by one.........oldness sucks. Oh the car came out nice too........................ lightbulb is not coming on, but is on lol.
Yes you two are powerlifting fanboys....................... but even as oldness I can still do this ............... Google Image Result for http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_O99_i6GuDE8/TEcVwPNiSuI/AAAAAAAAAt4/E0ptAMFpyoM/s1600/buakaw%2B1.png
I'll be honest: I was damn excited when I read it was a 2008 BMW 550i: I really likes these cars. What a turnaround on this vehicle: looks better than new!
