This is a new client; a referral from a good friend and client of mine. He has been researching getting his vehicle ceramic/glass coated for some time. My friend and client overheard him one day and mentioned that I do all of his vehicles and that he should contact me. He did. Set up an appointment and now this sweet Beemer is in for a little correction and protection!

This paint is amazing! It’s full of flake, pearl, and just craziness! When my lights and the sun hit it…it has to be seen in person!

It came to me with the usual water spotting, minor marring and swirling and some minor scuff marks.

Tools/chemicals/process/etc:

Iron decon with McKee’s37 iron remover.
Washed with Blackfire shampoo, GYEON mitt.
Clayed with a Griot’s medium mitt.
Master Blaster to dry.

ScanGrip lighting.

Misc. Foam pads.

Washed again after correcting due to excessive dust with SCG Pro shampoo and GYEON mitt. MB to dry again.
