1999 BMW 750il

[sevenrd]

Detailed this 750il today. Really nice car: V12, leather throughout with some very nice stitching. Today was exterior only but hopefully the customer will return and I can tackle the interior.



This was really tough work. After washing I saw it was covered with severe swirls. I did not get this car completely swirl-free due to time constraints, and let the customer know. But considering the severity of the marring and the time I had I was happy with the work. The customer seemed happy as well.



Process was...



Wash w/BHB and foam gun. DP extreme foam

Sonus green clay

OHC @ 1500 - multiple passes on worst areas

OP @ 1100

Prime

AJT

DP tire gel

Armor All wheel wells.



Befores

Hood before:

After OHC - couldn't get rid of the pitting:

Right front fender before:

After two passes of OHC. You can see there's still some marring, and I hated having to move on to other areas while leaving it this way. But I had to address the rest of the car due to time constraints. The final pass of OP improved it a bit as well:

Rear 1/4 panel before:

Rear 1/4 panel after OHC:

And some full afters - sun was going down, but I tried to get some hood shots best I could:

Considering how bad it was and only two polishing steps, I think you did a remarkable job.

As you can see, he did an excellent job. "sevenrd" seems to really care about doing it right and I appreciate his work ethic. Indeed, I'm a happy customer!

Thanks everyone!



And thank you especially, snovvman. I'm glad you're happy with the car.

Those are some really excellent results in my opinion, despite the time constraints. Great job!

WOW ... those wheels! I couldn't tell in the first few photos that they were chrome.



Great work on a grand automobile. I used to have a 740i sport (2001) and I still think those E38s are among the classiest looking cars on the planet.



By the way ... the owner loved the work: BimmerBoard post
