Hey guys....glad to be back at work!

Here's a Bimmer that's owned by a local real estate broker. He is very good to me in that he lets me detail other clients car's at his building and does not charge me a dime. He will not even let me give him a freebie or discount! So I decided to take care of this awesome car of his and give it the works.

This is a total Pinnacle XMT and Souveran job. This will also be a review for these products since it's the first time I've used them.



Pinnacle XMT #2 Swirl Remover/Polish

(EDGE 2K Green Med. Cutt Pad at a #5 setting)




It was 96 in the sun today and this stuff rocked! The car had moderate swirls from the dealer so #1 wasn't gonna do it. With one pass, I knew I had my new arsenal of swirl removers. Took everything out...including some heavy water marks and sap. There was very low dusting; I didn't have to use a QD to remove any of the product. The smell was amazing! Key-Lime is what I'm guessing. Made my work alot more enjoyable.



Final Opinion:

One of the best swirl removers I've used to date. I can tell it was designed for the PC and works awesome under high heat conditions.



Pinnacle XMT Glaze

(EDGE 2K Blue Polishing Pad at a #3 setting)




Once again, I was impressed. The glaze had a super thin form and there was that smell again. GRAPE! Nice. I was amazed on how far such a small amount would go. I'd say about 5-6 quarter sized amounts did this large car. It filled in all of the remaining defects and gave the car a glow. I have never seen a glow like this with my Meg's #7. Left a super-slick finish and a reflection that I've never seen on white before.



Final Opinion:

Easy to use. Works well in the heat. Give awesome depth and glow!



Pinnacle Liquid Souveran Wax

(EDGE 2K White Polishing Pad at a #3 setting)




Now I've heard alot of hype about this wax. I was more anxious to use it than any product. It was a thin liquid wax to me. This made me a little hesitant on how it would go on but had no problems. Only took about 5 quarter sized amounts to do the car. Smell wasn't that good but so what! The results were dramatic. It gave the car a reflection that Meg's #26 had never done on white. Was so easy to remove too.



Final Opinion:

THE new wax in my kit. The hype is true. Went on easy and came off easy. Gave amazing results and a 20 dollar tip!

WOWEEE! I love that car and your work on it is phenomenal!! Great color, but tough to make look good..you did it though!
 
Great work and write up. I am not one for BMW's but you made that thing look incredible. The exterior paint looks like a glass of milk, something not often seen on white details.
 
As always your work is superb. What I find impressive is how well the new products worked in the heat. I'm curious if they would work as well on a dark colored car in the same conditions.

Doing a black BMW X5 and a red Supra over the next couple of days. All will be with Pinnacle's products.

I also have some stuff from the DP lineup. Their Max Wax is awesome. Alot like Souveran paste. I tried some on my brother's Jeep and was very impressed.

I'll do even more reviews with pics for you all.



Thanks for all your compliments guys!
 
Justin: GREAT WORK! White cars are very tough to capture on a camera, but you did a wonderful job. It really shows the finish well. And the color saturation is outstanding.



Take care and catch ya on the forums when I get back from my Indy biz trip.

Nice work. I must say your review is concise, to the point, and well formatted. Keep it up!



Thank you and thank you all.

When I learn something, I like to share it. I think that's what a forum is for. Not for bashing or selling one's product or service. If I find something I like and works, I want to share that information.



Once again, thank you.
 
Very nice. I own a white vehicle and I know how hard it can be to get those type

of results.

Thanks for the product reviews , too , and keep us posted on how they perform.
 
great write up man! love to see that since im new to all of this and i know it's hard to make a white car pop but you did a great job looks perfect
