Got around to prep my new ED 2012 E92 M3
I took delivery of my 2012 M3 back in December after my European Delivery at the end of October. As soon as I received the car I drove it to the Welt's parking lot and I applied a coat of Menzerna Power Lock Sealer to protect the paint. When I dropped it off at the airport I did not wash the car and I instructed the dealership not to wash my car. I received it with the same bugs I left them with in Germany. I was happy to know that nobody have touched or attempted to wash my car. Therefore, no swirl marks whatsoever
I have only been washing the car but this past weekend I've got around to clay, glaze and seal it with Menzerna Finishing Glaze PO115 C and Menzerna Power Lock Sealer. Here are the results:     Typical BMW Orange Peel

Forgot about the interior
The inside is as well as or more important than the outside. So I've treated the seats and dash with my favorite leather care and condition Leperpflege by Einszett and on top of that Leather Protection Cream by Leather Master.
For the dash I use Einszett Cockpit Premium Interior Cleaner and I top it off with 303 to protect it from the Miami Sun.

Looks great, did you think about a coating like Wolf's Body Wrap, Opti coat, Cquartz?
I know powerlock is great as well. Interior looks spotless and good choice on products -Martin |

Looking at all these detail threads is seriously making me hate our snowy winters right now...and I typically love snow, haha.
Car looks great. I made the big mistake of having our dealer "prep" our paint before we took delivery. I should have requested them not to do it...
