The First vehicle was a 2008 BMW E93 M3 in Jerez Black with Silver Interior. This vehicle was in for a complete exterior decontamination and protection using exclusively Swissvax products, and also a complete interior cleansing and protection with Swissvax.
The process took about 8 hours, with two people working the entire time.
Here's how the car looked before:
Mmm Eisenmann Exhaust
The interior was pretty dirty... It was treated with:
-Vaccuum
-SV Leather Cleaner
-SV Leather Milk
-SV Plastic Wash
-SV Protecton Matt
-SV Quick Interior Finish
-1Z Windscreen Clear
The engine bay also received a cleansing and protection with:
-1Z Blitz
-SV Protecton
-SV Seal Feed
-SV Nano Express
We start the exterior cleansing with a cleansing of every single crack, jamb, body crease, door handle, bumper grille, rubber seals, etc... with 1Z Blitz and a SV Brush
After cleansing all the nooks and crannies, i rinse the entire car, then apply SV Protecton and/or SV Seal Feed, and follow that with a wash with SV Car Bath.
Following the bath, this car was treated with Swissvax Paint Rubber Yellow, and Cleaner Fluid Regular applied by the Porter Cable R/O machine.
After Cleaner fluid, the exterior was treated with Swissvax Blau-Weiss wax for BMW Paints by hand. This wax provides better longevity for BMW's, i've seen a single application last up to Four months on my personal car.
After applying the wax, the wax was removed and the car was left to sit in the sun for a few hours. Following, it was dusted with a wool duster then given a final wipe with SV Quick Finish to remove the excess wax.
Here's how she looked after!

That's all for that one!
The Second M3...
This M3 is a 2008 E93 In Jet Black with Black Interior. This car was in for some much needed TLC...
Initially this car was booked for an Exterior decontamination and protection with Swissvax, however after inspecting the car upon arrival, I advised the owner that his car was in need of at least a single stage polishing to remove most of the oxidation, swirls, and other imperfections that were present.
On the interior the owner only wanted a "Slight cleaning", however I'm not going to leave a customer not satisfied. I Didn't use Swissvax products on the interior, instead ii used 1Z Blitz, Cockpit, and windscreen clear and Chemical Guy's Leather Cleaner.
Here's how the car looked before:
Bird Poop... On a Jet Black... that sat for days!!!!!!!!!!
The Wheels, tires, and wheel wells were treated with the following:
-SONAX Full Effect
-1Z W99
-1Z Blitz
-SV Cleaner Fluid Reg.
-SV Autobahn
-1Z Rubber Care
The Exhaust tips and muffler was cleaned and polished with:
-1Z W99
-SV Metal Polish
-Cheesecloth
The wash process was the same as the last M3... Clean all the nooks and crannies, protect the rubber and plastics with SV Seal Feed and Protecton, Wash with SV Car Bath, and Clay with SV Paint Rubber (Yellow)
Here's how the clay was looking... This car was VERY contaminated... this was after only 1/4 of the hood!
I Began to work on the exterior as Beni started with the interior. Here's a 50/50 of the passenger's seat after Chemical Guy's Leather Cleaner
All the dirt and grime that came out of just the seats, steering wheel, and shifter!
Ok, so on to the exterior... This car's paint was very oxidized from sitting in the sun every day and not being properly cared for. Nothing Swissvax Cleaner Fluid Pro with a Fine pad couldn't handle...
