Here's a good turn around.

First off, if you haven't "liked" our Facebook page, please do so here.

Being in business for more than 8 years, here at Vivë we get everything from your everyday vehicles, highest end exotics, collectible classics and unique situations, such as this.

This BMW X6 was parked outdoors for a long period of time due to the customer traveling. When he came back from his trip, the ENTIRE car was covered in baked on cement (the Houston heat doesn't help either), over spray and just layers of dust because of the near by construction. It was all over the exterior paint, emblems, grill, lug nuts, wheels, fender wells and some ended up in the door jambs. Long story short, the customer went to multiple shops in Houston, Texas to get quotes and an evaluation. All came to ONE conclusion: REPAINTING THE CAR estimated at $8,500 to $12,000.

Most of us here know that repainting depreciates the value and matching a BMW Black Sapphire Metallic is not easy.

We took on the challenge and here are the final results. Complete removal of overspray and cement, ZERO painting, paintless dent removal, a two-step Paint Correction to remove surface defects and scratches and finished off with two thick coats of CQuartz FINEST Ceramic Coating. Here are the Before and After pictures:

WOW!!!! Excellent turn around! What were some of the products used to remove the cement & over spray? I can't even imagine how often this must happen when new housing developments are going up.

+1 on removing the cement

INCREDIBLE work. I had my doubts, but man that is something else. Good job! :rockon
 
Wow! Spectacular work! What kind of time was put into it? Was the paint damaged at all from the removal of the cement?
 
M' gawd! That is amazing. Great turnaround.

I, too, am interested in what product(s) and technique(s) you used to get the cement off.

Best regards,
Tom
 
Hey Houston !

Beautiful, perfect work !

Is it just me or are all X6 drivers a little weird ? :)

I did a new X6 awhile back in that beautiful red metallic, and the Client had done all kinds of things wrong to this beautiful car too..

I mean, like - who would park a car like that in a construction area and leave it for weeks??? Really ??? :)

Great turn around ! Hope the Client can do better this time around..

Simply incredible! Not only did you renew that splattered up buggy you saved the owner a huge chunk of money.
