Pics of detail ?

Post by stu331 » Thu Oct 16, 2008 9:30 pm

A quick question guys......can I post some pics of a detail I did......no advertising or anything like that, but this car is something else it's not an Elise but a BMW it's the original condition that's the eye opener :D

I'll take your word for it r055 so I have my finger ready to point fairly and squarely at yuooooo :D

This was a full interior and exterior detail but it's the exterior that was immediately noticable as you will see!!

Rite here we go, first off a few before pics (I think that's rite anyways :) ): -

And the roof: -

And the afters: -

And this one would have been a good pic if only the focus was a bit better but here you go anyways: -

So there you have it....ever seen a car in that condition?......I haven't and it's been SOLD 8)

It was in that condition cause it has been sitting in a driveway under trees for nearly 4years.

Thanks for the replies guys :wink:

Ken it was just over 2days, on the morning of the third day was just to apply a second coat of a new wax which I'm very impressed with although I can't give you any info on it at the mo cause it was sent to me to put on test....and as such I don't know who makes it, I don't know what it's called, what I do know is that I think it has a VERY high carnuaba content and the finish is breathtaking and it's likely to cost £100+ 8)

Ali you'll have to pop over to our unit at Errol sometime........compare notes eh :wink: ........I'm sure we met at Star Performance a while back, we were there doing demos with the various machines.....Rotary, PC and hand application of various products like wax, you'll know a common mistake is for people to apply waaaayyyyyy too much eh LOL!!

Yeah the colour is an acquired taste....not mine either and it's an original BMW limited edition colour and not a respray too.......in the log book it is described as BLUE :lol: I think Stevie Wonder must have had a hand in naming the colour eh LOL!!
