    This car was just recently purchased by some good friends of mine. They immediately knew they wanted to get it treated but originally weren't aware as to how severe the defects were that their new-to-them BMW was sporting. I had a feeling it would be "one of those jobs" but even I didn't know how bad it was going to be until after I got the wash and clay wrapped up. I think it's a massive improvement and the car actually has a metallic blue color now!

    Foam wash
    Clay bar
    Dried
    Masked
    Griot's 6" DA with Uber Yellow and LC Yellow Foam pads
    Menzerna SF1500
    Menzerna Powerlock

    Onto the pictures... Not as many as usual since it was taking a long time to correct the paint and I didn't want to waste more time snapping away.

    Clay was pretty bad on the front and horizontal panels.
