Prism - BMW X3 - Dodo Juice Correction Detail

I was contacted by the owner, originally to do his Audi S5, but after seein the results he wanted his wifes BMW X3 done. He had menioned it was heavily swirled....ill let the pictures do the talking:

On arrival:





I washed the car, 3 buckets (wash,rinse,wheels) with Dodo Juice BTBM, the wheels were initially being cleaned with Dodo Juice Mellow Yellow, but didn find it strong enough so switch to Bilberry Wheel Cleaner. Then rinsed, treated to Tardis, wiped down, rinsed, Iron X, wiped down rinsed, and clayed, rinsed, then washed again and dried with the hot blow dryer from Chemical Guys.



It was then time to inspect the paintwork for defects:







and then the swirls:

Nice work Robert! I have a X3 next also could you share the time you spend on this detail.

 

Between 10 and 11 Hours in total, non stop...no breaks

 

I see you listed you used scholls... how do you like it compared to M105, Menz powerfinish?

 

Well put it this way, i started back in the day using 3M, moved to Megs 105/205, then onto Menz (still using Megs for harder correction) but since using Scholls i use nothing else, for me personally i can achieve quicker correction, and refine much better with each set (hence reducing my correction time).

 

Thank you Robert !

 

Great turnaround. I have 105/205, but leaning more towards Menzerna and Megs D300 now.

 

I have tried the Megs MF system and it worked very well, but the pads are really badly constructed and fell apart really quickly
