Bmw M3 Restoration/Correction - Lucci Elite

Client saw a few of my write ups on a different forum and decided he wanted to bring his M3 to a perfect condition. The car didn't look to bad upon arrival *sun was going down* once I had washed and stripped the many coats of what appeared to be glaze I was left with tons of rids, swirls, and clay marring from a previous detail... All I was missing was Hologram's and it would have been complete. Took over two days just to compound it with myself and Robby. Long story short the car was brought back to a perfect state.

It was topped with a Swissvax Wax I've been testing thats set to be released very soon

 

That paint was beat up real good! Client brought it to the right guy because it looks perfect now! Awesome work Jimmy!

 

Amazing turnaround! That paint was in sad shape. Looks dripping wet now!

 

A secret SV wax? Nice

 

Its an amazing wax I have two different ones I have been testing since last November they are both set to release soon don't know the exact date though...

 

Looks great Jimmy!

 

You weren't kidding, that was rough. Lovin the 50/50's. Bringing it as usual Jimmy...like a boss.

 

Amazing turn around man . That was really beat up !!!

 

That is some great work, thanks for sharing. Very interesting hood split tape job. It really showed the difference effectively but I bet it was a pita to 3 step the 1 inch lines to correct after, no? In any case it made an interesting photo so thanks for the effort.

The owner must be using a dirty towel to wipe this car down regularly or using a kitchen scrub pad. This guy actually has the most uniform marring I have ever seen so at least you know he is through and consistent LOL. Great save- the car look like a pool of oil.

When you clean such dirty wheels with Sonax and the deep purple runs on fresh concrete does it leave a stain? When I use Sonax on my wheels the once or twice a year they need something stronger I wash it in the street because I am concerned with staining.


Thanks for posting.

 

"Cleaness" ............livin the Boss life yes sir.

 

love the 50/50s

 

Wow, that's some thick foam...

(let the that's what she said jokes begin...)

 

Looks OK if you want a perfect finish car. That's a tough colour to dial in! Great as usual. How are you liking the van

sent using my thumbs, mispelling most words

 

Thanks buddy.... I haven't really been using the van the last few cars were done at my house while I'm in the process of moving to a shop...

 

speechless

 

Thought you had a shop?
