    Default My 2010 M5 by Jeff @ Immaculate Reflections

    I have to give proper credit to Jeff McGoveran of Immaculate Reflections who spent countless hours on my new car right after I picked it up. I asked him to provide me the pictures to I could do the work he put into this car proper justice. The plan was to prep the paint and then receive a full wrap from the best in the business at Premier.


    Even though the car had about 1500 miles on it when I bought as a demo, it had a fair amount of swirls and scratches throughout. Jeff applied his hard work and serious time getting out all the imperfections. All in all I believe he spent about 25 hours on the car.

    Here are the before shots:















    Here is a close up of the back of the car before Jeff got to work:







    The wheels needed some attention:









    They looked quite a bit better after he applied his touch:








    The man at work:






    Here are some shots of what was in store for Jeff:




















    More swirls, scratches, and holograms / buffer trails:

    Unfortunately, it was past 10 pm on the second day when Jeff completed his work so there were no pictures in the sun:

    Nice work! BMW paint is not the most compliant or easiest to correct. That's for sure!

    Thank you. BMW paint is not the easiest to work with, the clear was somewhat hard on this one, so it took time to remove the RIDS (random isolated deep scratches). The swirls went quickly, so the majority of the time was spend removing the RIDS. He wanted it as flawless as possible since it was going to get a full body wrap at Premier.

    TLcoats, thank you! It seemed soft at first, but it put up a fight with the RIDS. But I'm happy with the way it came out, and more importantly my client was pleased.
