    This awesome M3 Sedan was booked in by a existing customer to receive a full interior & exterior deep cleaning as well as an engine detail. No correction was needed at this time since the vehicle was fairly new and had been previously given maintenance washes only by myself. Some recent scuff marks on the front bumper and fender were also pointed out to me when the owner dropped off the vehicle.


    Process:
    Tires and wells cleaned with OPC 3:1
    Wheels cleaned with Duragloss AWC
    Badges and crevices cleaned with OPC 3:1 & Raceglaze brushes
    Washed with Duragloss 902 and OPC via 2BM
    Clayed with Riccardo Yellow and ONR
    Polished with Optimum Poli Seal
    Waxed with Optimum Car wax
    Glass cleaned with Stoners IG
    Tires dressed with Optimum Opti Bond
    Exhaust cleaned with Optimum Metal Polish
    Leather cleaned/protected with Optimum Protectant Plus

    Nice job on that pretty car! The one scrape looked like it was down to the metal...was it? Did that one come out? Those were in bad spots to correct!

    Thanks everyone. On both scrapes I was able to get the white marks out but some spots were down to the metal.
