You should try your claybar with the Meguiars Ultimate Quick Detailer as lubricant .

Holy balls. Maybe try some Iron X?

Nice pics! The car looks great, and it also makes you look good next to it (not just you. The m3 has that effect on everyone).

Any plans on the performance side? Or keeping it cosmetic?!

I've got a tiny bit of curb rash. That kind of attention wouldn't be justified because I'd just be sad about the dings.

OP--epic first post. I'll admit that initially I thought you were repping Chemical Guys, but your post and the ensuing doo-doo storm have been thoroughly entertaining. Your car looks badass, BTW. I'm a fan of alpine white, obviously, and the carbon fiber accents are cool.

This forum is a brodown. I hope you stick around and talk some shit.
Here is why the 8 hours...
It's about the 19'///M220 wheels .

1-Wash with foamgun with Wolfgang Autobathe shampoo => 2 x
2-Meguiars Claybar with Meguiars Ultimate Quick Detailer => 2 x
3-Meguiars Goldclass polish
4-Sonax Polymer Netshield => 2x

So actually it were lots of wheels...
Note : Inner barrels too !
I can only say that the ///M220 wheels are really a pain in the a$$...
After that 8 hours I felt like a cripple , but after driving 500 miles my wheels still look amazing !
Hope to keep them that way ...
Pulled up a pic and experienced severe anxiety. Now I can see where 8 hrs came from.

Yep when talking about real detail and many drops of sweat .
But after the pain in the a$$ it's really worth .

Did the clay bar and new Griots Poly Wax today. I'll post pics later in different thread--what have u done lately thread or something. The Alpine White can really take a wax, as OP demonstrated and motivated me to stop being lazy.

Best thing to protect our paint is of course Opti-Coat .
I don't have it on , because my car is not my DD .
But for next year I'm thinking about it..

Welcome OP! You have to be the fastest to get to 20+ reputation with the least amount of posts haha.
