bills742's Jet Black M3 by ZAXJAX

CG CWG
Meguiar's Clay
I used a rotary for paint correction
Menzerna Powerfinish - left very little marring on a white pad
Menzerna 106FA on blue but still left marring
I switched to my PC to finish
Menzerna 106FA worked great and finished perfect
1 coat of Collinite 476 and 1 coat of Collinite 845

Wheels were cleaned with P21S TAW and dressed with Meguiar's Endurance Gel
Glass was cleaned with Stoner's
Engine was cleaned with Simple Green and dressed with 303 Aerospace Protectant

I didn't take a lot of before pics because it was pitch dark out when Adnan dropped the car off. This is one sick M3 and I was glad to have the opportunity to take care of it.

This is what I had to start with after a wash



Rotary Swirls from a previous detail



More rotary marks



Water etching and swirls



After hood



Fender polished



Trunk lid before





After







Rear quarter panel



After shots











Engine before





Engine after







More after's
