Advanced Detailing:135i

This was a straightforward job to prep the car and get it ready for the rainy florida summer weather.
I had done two Lexus' for the family the day before but had to stop because of the rain, so i came back the next day to finish this.
I had to do some mild claying on the horizontal surfaces before i applied a coat of collinite 845.
The pics are not of the best lighting quality because the clouds were rolling in again.




















Then it started to rain

Nice, I'm not near Amsterdam though. How did you end up in Florida?

It's supposed to be 103 here this weekend, a nice shade of primer would certainly look better than black right now! I will admit that the 1er does look nice in that grey, but I still prefer a nice, clean Jet Black, but certainly know your pain.

I know you're in the south, i've been here for almost 30 years, came here to go to college. After 2 degrees and many years of working with mostly unqualified dentists i decided to do what i would enjoy.
There are "detailers" on every street corner in south florida, so it took me awhile to find my clients or for them to find me.
