2008 M3 Correction and Opti Coat - Auto Salon Works

Car had a lot of tar build up and was the perfect candidate for using my Rupes LHR 21ES. I picked it up at the post office just before I started polishing. Thanks KB! :headbang:

Not a lot of pics before as I needed to get down to business. There was marring on several areas of the car and polished the clear bra as well.





Paint wasn't too bad, just some marring.



































After opti coat. Car is so bright that my camera is lowering the ISO and giving the car shadows and different shades of silver.


















Polished the tips

 

Nice job, you got that silver to really pop!

Looks like it was a nice win for the Rupes. And from the what I've been reading/hearing about it, there will be a lot more to follow.

 

Thanks. This color is silverstone and it turned closer to titanium. :whistle:

 

Nice work Drew! Rupes is pretty sweet isn't it?

Love those E90 M3's, especially with those wheels. Not the "popular" choice, but its a nice subtle, understated look. Car is glowing.

 

Thanks Jeff! Yup, the Rupes made correction faster and easier on this med. paint.
The wheel color is good. Wheel design is not as popular nor is it fun to clean.
The owner said the same thing about the color!

 

Yeah, they are NOT the most fun to clean...but matched well to the sedan's styling IMO.

 

I had that same issue with the camera on the Titanium E39 M5 i just did.... especially in the sun, it was so bright that the pics did not do it justice.

 

great job!

 

Nice work. Curious whats your camera/lens setup?

Just picked up a canon t2i + 50mm f/1.8, but I think i need a macro? (new to phoograpy)

 

Thanks Phil!

Canon SX10IS P&S and use macro a lot.

 

good work!
