Black 328i - corrected and Zainoed

This was a 328i I did for Autopia member Inabis. It had some severe marring from a tunnel wash - and some of the softest paint I've seen lately. It was almost impossible to finish out well - PO106FF ended up doing the trick.

Very nice. Yea, the Jet Black on these cars are VERY soft. I'm going to be spending a solid day on my E92 this weekend. I found Collinite #845 really helps to cover up the minor swirls. I'm able to get rid of all but little swirling, so it helps to use something to cover up the rest.
 
Excellent work, very deep and wet looking finish. :)



I agree about the solid black BMWs, really tough to buff out because of how soft the paint is.
 
Wow, very, very wet glowing finish. I also agree that the black paint on the new BMWs are terribly soft, not only is it a pain getting it marring free, but keeping it that way is pretty much impossible, IMO. Anyways, you did a great job :)
