Hey guys. A few notes to avoid repeated constructive criticism: 1. Yes, Phil told me the tire foam is not for the tires, but actually for the wheel wells. How embarassing. :sorry: 2. Yes, Phil reminded me to apply wax/sealant in back and forth maneuvers and not in circular motions. 3. That's it! Criticize away :thumb: I took pictures the following day (today) since there was better lighting Wash CG Grime Reaper NXT Spraydown ONR Wash Pro-Line Grout Sponge FMINUS Waffle Weave Stoner's Invisible Glass Costco MF Shark Steamer CG Blower Green Clay (brand unknown...CG?

Nice job the car looks fantastic! I see you are under the tutelage of the best! Look forward to seeing your work some more.
Great job on the car, looks amazing with the dodo juice!!! And you have a great a mentor, and I love his own lineup of detailing supplies as well!!!!:applause::applause:
EXCELLENT WORK!!! In regards to applying the sealants and the waxes, I personally sometimes do it back and forth and sometimes in circular motions. Never really noticed a difference, so you're probably OK. I saw that you're using the same Lowe's "foam gun" that I have, that thing is the best. Have had it for more than a year now and that thing is a beast, it's unbreakable. Best $10 I ever spent. Beautiful 3-series by the way, love the non-metallic black paint...
Criticize...man I have nothing to criticize all I got is :druling: :druling: :druling: First of all the vehicle looks gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous :nod: Now the amount of garages you have is even better :thud: Vehicle looks great and yes the pictures of the sun hitting the vehicle look great :wicked: Well done :applause: thank you for sharing with us eace:
Car looks good man. Love beemers. I've been wanting to get a 3 series for a while now, it will be my next car. By the way, what kind of spoiler is that? Its not factory correct?
Yessir! Thanks a lot man! I've heard about you Haha yeah it has been with me since I was 4. :worship2: Me too! Always classic. Pho sho! Thanks a lot sir! Thank you! Ah thanks for that advice. I will try back and forth next time to see if it changes anything. Yeah the Lowe's gun is good. What is even better is that they sell the exact model at Brookstone for $25. Same exact thing except it is blue. Check out their Foam 'n Spray Car Wash Nozzle Thanks a lot admin sir! Spoiler is OEM CF Trunk Spoiler Kit is OEM Mtechnik Here is how my car used to look compared to now: oh em gee!....how I have longed for those words :support: :hippie: hahahaha :giggle: dang I fulfilled my fruitiness quota for the day!
