BMW 335 & Infiniti G35: Clean Combo
Saturday was nice out
Sunday was a HOT ****. Got a couple nice cars done, one a beautiful blue BMW 335 and a friend's G35 sedan that needed some attention. Both turned out very well IMO, despite the fact I was delirious by the time the first one was done. All in all it was a great day and I was pleased with the results. I'll let the pics do the talking from here.
Paint correction supplies:
Makita 9227C Rotary Buffer
Lake Country white and black pads
3M White wool pad (G35 only)
3M Rubbing Compound (G35)
3M Machine Polish
3M Ultrafine Machine Polish
I'll start things off with the BMW
BEFORE PICS
You can see some very very minor swirling and some water spots but nothing major. She has been taken care of.
Under the lights you can see more of the defects.
PROGRESS PICS
After a two stage polish:
Polishing the exhaust tips
AFTER PICS
AND ON TO THE NEXT ONE
The G was a little harder to work with than the 3 series. It still cleaned up reasonably well. I couldn't get any good direct sun shots afterward but there are plenty of flood light shots to make up for it.
The lights help to see the damage
PRPROGRESS PICS
After compound and first polish
AFTER PICS
Thanks for checking it out guys, I should have more material soon.
