This 3 Series was trashed, inside and out. I'm still not happy with the exterior, but i don't know if I ever would be. Interior and claying was done yesterday, and took 5 hours. :hairpull



Anyway, here it is. Used and abused in all its glory. :dance



Interior had oxy mix on seats and carpets, and virosol cut 10:1 on all trim. Woolite mix on headliner etc All trim dressed with armor all.I forgot to take any interior after shots today.

I've never seen swirling like this before. I dont think this car has seen any form of car care since it was purchased.



Exterior had:

Active F car shampoo

Autopia Clay (used half a bar)

Menzerna Powergloss x 2 (4 inch cutting pad)

DACP x 3 (4 inch cutting pad)

VM ( Propel Greeen)

EX by hand



The alloys are really bad, so I didn't worry too much about them, as they're getting changed soon. These had virosol sprayed on, left to sit for 10 min, then pressure washed off. Excellent stuff on wheels etc.



Lovely stuff

:eek: You'd think I'd be used to how bad people can trash their cars but...



Very nice work on the paint, especially considering where you were starting from. :up

Thanks for the kind words, guys. I will try and get some interior shots in the week, as he's bringing it around for a coat of Natty's Blue.



If I had my way, I'd have had the car for another day, and got every damn swirl out. I think I'm going mad too, guys. I dont see as much of a difference as other people do. I still see swirls and scratches where they see a shiny car lol

Asonyexec,



It's called Virosol, and is made here in the UK. It's a citrus based degreaser, and also very economical at about $7 for 5 litres, and diluted 10:1 makes a great wheel cleaner. I did no agitation when cleaning his wheels. Just sprayed on, let to sit, and pressure washed off.

Yes, but to us there is a big difference between a shiny car and swirl-free car.



To most people if it's shiny looking then it's clean enough.
