Thread: 2008 Jet Black 335i by Got Leather

This is the 2nd time I have done this car. Back in April this car received 18 hours of paint correction. This is not the normal Jet Black most are use to. This paint was some of the hardest for BMW I have come across and I do 3-4 corrections a month on BMW's. The owner contacted me and explained he had a few water spots he wanted removed as well as a another thorough polishing and sealant before it got too cold. Upon arrival, the water spots were pretty deep but really only on the horizontal surfaces. So the hood, roof, and trunk lid received a full 3 step while the rest of the car was treated to a mild 1 step polishing.

The 3 steps were:

Menzerna SIP via Purple Foamed Wool @ 1200-1700-1200-900 RPM's
Menzerna Power Finish 203s via Orange LC Pad @ 1200-1500-900 RPM's
Menzerna Super Finish 106FA via Black LC Pad @ 900-1400-900 RPM's

The rest of the car was Menzerna Power Finish 203s via White LC Pad @ 1200-1500-1200-900RPM's.

Then after another wash and IPA wipe down I went over the entire car using Chemical Guys EZ Creme Glaze. This step further cleans the paint from any polishing oils and gives a great pop to the paint. Also helps in prepping the surface for any sealants. I did this using my PCXP via Black LC Pad @ Speed 6

The sealant of choice for this particular vehicle was Blackfire Wet Diamond. It has great looks, great durability, extremely slick, and super easy-on, easy-off.

The wheels were cleaned using Chemical Guys Sticky Gel Wheel Cleaner, the tires were brushed and cleaned using Chemical Guys Grime Reaper

Here if you look closely you can see the hard water spots



I did not spend the usual amount of time on before/during photos but rather the afters.

I cleaned the tips with Grime Reaper then used Optimum Metal Polish
