Title: Detailed 2009 Jet Black BMW 335d Post by: AV6NHBP6SPD on December 16, 2009, 10:03:28 AM Today me and Nick started detail on this 2009 Black BMW 335d. car only has 1700 miles on it. rear quarter panel was repainted( i think he said it was in accident or something, something minor) well, idiots that fixed it apparently dont know how to do paint finish. you will see result of their work later
OK. Nick washed the car with CWC and i cleaned floor mats and wheels while he did that. then we taped whole car off, removed plates. it was all we did friday. Saturday we only worked on car for couple hours i think(forgot what we did Saturday) Sunday we did rear, roof and driver side doors. sealed wheels Tuesday we finished the car, Nick put black fire on to cure overnight, then gona be another coat today and 845 on top couple hours later. Notes: paint is Jet Black, pretty easy to fix, but couple times had to do 2 passes with SIP and then 203 all plastic painted parts (bumpers and side skirts) are pita to fix, they seem to have harder paint which we were not able to correct 100% but about 90%. even with wool pad it didnt make perfect. maybe paint is softer and easy to put deep scratches in. i did enjoy working on this couse it was black and results of work are easily shown. Tools and products used so far several kinds of wheel brushes with P21s wheel gel P21S TAW on floor mats CG CWC q-tips lake country sponge poor boys wheel sealant 203 with orange pad SIP with yellow PFW with SIP on rear bumper only (still scratches present but nowhere near as much, they looked to be deep once) 2 coats for black fire sealant and 1 coat of 845 will be done by tonight before

One question, how come you taped off the door handles? Title: Re: Detailed 2009 Jet Black BMW 335d Post by: AV6NHBP6SPD on December 17, 2009, 09:24:03 PM Quote from: "ikethegreat" Looks great. One question, how come you taped off the door handles? so when you work around them, edge of backing plate or velcro of pad doesnt damage that part of handle Title: Re: Detailed 2009 Jet Black BMW 335d Post by: ikethegreat on December 17, 2009, 10:56:19 PM So I guess you just do the handles by hand then?
Title: Re: Detailed 2009 Jet Black BMW 335d Post by: AV6NHBP6SPD on December 17, 2009, 10:59:33 PM mostly by hand. specialy inside of handles you have to do by hand, no other way to do it. i mean outside you do with buffer but thats after door is done and do face with buffer and rest by hand
