    November- BMW 330CI

    I did this BMW a while back, but it's one of my favorites that I always show to people when they say that a PC can't remove swirls: The people had been up in the snow and it was covered with dirt and salt...then they ran it through a couple of gas station car washes. Products: PB...

    The weather has finally been nice around here so I decided to do a full detail on my truck. I stripped my Zaino and applied VM and topped it off with S100. I have to say VM with S100 gives a nice deep wet look. I like the durability of Zaino but I like the look of S100 even more:xyxthumbs
