Fun car to work with, pretty much in great shape across the board. Being white, I got rather intimate with the clay bar, but other than that, just light swirling and soil. I paid extra attention to the finer details with this one.





Interior



- Steam to clean

- Zaino Z10 to protect

- Stoner's Invisible Glass on glass

- Zaino Z8 for jams, trim

Car is at the dealer today getting its 15k free service :)



hopefully they dont wash it in a machine, i told them to specify hand washing only
 
Very nice. I'm noticing more PC details. Works great. How did M105 work via PC for you. Others have mentioned that its correction ability is still very good.
 
Terrific results - BMW's just look terrific in white, IMO. That rear bumper...wow! I have the 3M film on my car, and I think the rear bumper piece is my favorite one...rock chips are nothing when you have clumsy folks moving stuff in and out of the trunk.

I hope you are ready to have all of this great work undone. :sadpace:



Anyways, the car looks great, *crisp* seems like the right word.
 
Thanks everyone.

I found this clear rather hard. ZPC alone was just not cutting it. 105 worked wonderfully at removing 95% of the defects after the first rounds of passes. I followed up on a couple spots on the hood and rear bumper ledge and walked around the car correcting any micromarring (almost none) with a quick pass or three with ZPC. This is a nice 1-2 combo via PC or rotary.
