    I was going to say you must have been flying to finish this vehicle in 8hrs :yikes: but 2 each spending 8hrs for a total of 16hrs that's more like it. Specially the colour, black looks great when done but it sure takes abit of work :thumb:

    Well done FMINUS :applause:

    Oh and thanks for that link to the plates very nice :thumb: I'll be ordering a few :cheerl:

    What is the primary use for a body solvent?? Do you use it all over the car or just lower panels?

    I use it like one would Tarminator. But you can mix it in with your wash to strip waxes and a fresh start

    One application of the steamer:

    Phil wetsanded my touch-up paint and polished it. Some residue stuck "under" the touch up paint (see picture #2). Steamer took it right off. Steamer also blasted grime build up within the 335i badge.

    wow that's cool AoshichanX, thank you for sharing those pictures with us.

    This steamer is quite the tool, I hate it when you get polish residue on those hard to reach spots it's a pain :wall:

    Question, at what temperature was the steamer set when used on the paint?

    FMINUS I saw that the steamer said 20A did you just plug it in to a regular socket? Any issues with the braker? Just wondering.

    After seeing a few cars on DW that had Supernatural I wasnt all that impressed but now I see its real potential, this BMW looks incredible! I think a wax is only as good as the prep work and polishing that comes before it. Again really nice job. BTW what CG product has the acronym MPT?
