Deep Sea Blue 135i - OCD|Detailed

Post by Kyle »

This particular car has quite a few performance mods, the owner tracks it regularly, si I expected loads of tar and paint chips...

Nothing could have actually prepared me for what we were faced with. The owner had took it upon himself to "protect" his paint by spraying most of the car with clear plasti dip. Would have been nice if it was applied properly, but it appeared as if it was sprayed too thin and was a nightmare to get off. This combined with the usual paint damage meant this was going to be a long weekend(not the good type)

Products used :

Wheels :
Auto Finesse Imperial diluted 1:1,
Auto Finesse Oblitarate,
Wheel Woolies,
Various brushes,
Chemical Guys wheel guard

Wash:
Chemical Guys Maxi Suds with 2BM
MF Madness Drying towel

Decon:
Auto Finesse Iron out,
Auto Finesse fine grade clay,
Carways Quick detailer

Polishing:
Scholl S3 Gold
Scholl S30+
White spider sandwich cutting pad,
Scholl orange finishing pad

LSP:
Chemical guys Jetseal 109

Interior:
BMW LEather cleaner,
Auto Finesse Hide leather condtioner,
Auto Finesse Spritz interior detailer

I was really keen on trying the scholl range, I have bee using Menzerna compounds since I started. In all honesty I thought they were going to be evenly matched and wasn"t going to spend all that money buying the range to try out. In stepped Vish from auto Finesse SA who send me both the pads and the full range of Scholl samples to try out(not just small samples, enough for two solid corrections!)

After trying the product, I can honestly say that I am not really keen on using my Menzerna compounds. S3 gives an awesome cut while finishing with a deep shine, no haziness at all which is incredible for a dedicated cutting compound, S30+ is a masterpiece of a refining compound, as can be seen with the wet look below :grin:


So enough faffing around with words, on to the pics :thumbup:
