    Gents,

    As some of you might know, my wife got a new 135i. We bought it on Monday, and today I gave her a full detail. Nothing too drastic, but still spent 7 hours to get it where I wanted it. Since the interior was perfect, the bulk of the work was spent getting the work in decent shape. I think I got about 90% correction.

    - washed with CG Citrus Wash 'n Gloss
    - clayed with that very very special stretchy clay
    - Menzerna 85RD on a blue Uber pad (needed more punch)
    - Menzerna 203S on a green Uber pad (took care of the swirls nicely)
    - Menzerna Power Lock
    - Swissvax Insignis v2

    Enjoy the pics:

    It says it's "Lemon Boston Leather" on the window sticker, but it looks white to me as well. No jeans in this car :(

    Wow, that is beautiful !!!
    Very nice, tight, Detail work !!!
    Congrats again - your Sweetheart must be so thrilled !
    This car will be way cooler to get into in the hot Texas summertime, I like those Sport Seats! They are so comfortable even on real long trips like from Northern California to San Antonio . :)
    I think if you keep up on the Leather, it wont be so prone to turn blue on you with jeans. Most jeans are really colorfast anyway.

    Thanks for sharing - the Pics are stunning too !

    Nice work Piet.

    The bimmer looks so tiny compared to your Ram. I think the tires on the Ram are begging for your attention ... lmao. I still remember the tire dressing test you did a while ago.

    Yes, the Dodge dwarfes that little thing. I haven't washed my truck in close to a month, HORRIBLE. I'll it this week though.

    Very nice. Why does the 135 have the ///M door sills?
