    just gave a little sring spruce up to this M5 today. nothing special. thorough cleansing of all winter dirt and grime, clay, and protection. we'll see if the owner opts for any correction in the future.

    Great work, still a huge difference without correction and all the little details like neat tire dressing and exhaust cleaning make it stand out, great work bill!

    thanks!

    many thanks bob. it is a very nice color.

    thank you pat!

    thanks.

    thanks dave. surprisingly, the exhaust tips did not come as clean as the pictures lead one to believe. they were almost totally coated with baked on carbon, and i could only get about half of it off. very bad staining was present. might need an angle grinder to get the rest off.

    thanks, but its not my car. its a customers vehicle. i wouldnt mind having one, but i dont know if i would every BUY one...

    thanks gianni. i do a good amount of work for him and he gets me a lot of referrals as well. the M5 is actually a co-workers of his. agreed on the commander. currently hes got a 4 inch lift on it, wheel spacers, big ass off road tires and the roof rack. i believe his next plan is to outfit HELLA or PIAA lights on the front and rear of the roof rack and then throw his spare up on it. the things bad ass for a kiddie shuttle/grocery getter lol.

    Try laquer thinner with 0000 steel wool, then polish as you might be able to bring them back.

    yeah thats one of the processes i usually use, but i just simply didnt have the time to spend what would have been over an hour on the tips. i will most likely be seeing the car again soon for a more in depth job.

    Love the color. Gotta hate how much brake dust builds up though.

    Hey Bob,

    Would you mind sharing what brand of thinner you use? I know some can be very dangerous to use around plastics (turning them white).
