Original thread that includes comments: http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=185743 This is OC kid's 2008 SSII M3. Overall, the car was in pretty good shape when it arrived. The CF roof on the other hand was a mess. The resin the roof uses is extremely sensitive to any type of contact compared to the clear coat on the rest of the car. The video in the above link illustrates the transformation the roof went through after several passes of Megs M105 and SIP. Ignore the bits of lint on the right side of the roof, as they were wiped off immediately after the video was taken. ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by Eclipsis; 02-10-2009 at 12:01 AM. |

Original thread that includes comments: http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=184898 This is user rickc's 2008 AW M3. The paint was dull, had minor swirling, waterspots, and bird dropping etchings. The job took approximately twelve hours. ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by Eclipsis; 02-10-2009 at 12:16 AM. |

My car's twin: 08 Space Gray on Fox Red M3! This was a much easier job. The car wasn't prepped when my client picked the car up three months ago. Thankfully he had washed the car properly since then, so all that was needed was some claying and light polish. JetSeal109 and CG 50/50 were applied at the end.

Even though this is practically a brand new car, the paint showed swirls, RIDS, and extremely dull paint from driving in lousy Northeast winter weather.

This is user h1d's 09 E92 M3. It came to me basically in perfect condition, with only a light claying, wax, and sealant needed. Finished this detail at about 9 PM, so not too many pictures came out correctly thanks to the darkness. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Amazing work. My question is this. How often does one need to do this to maintain that brilliant look to the paintjob?
