Smoke: BMW M3 Carbon Black/Paint Correction

This car is a daily driver in carbon black.

Started with the wheels and tires: P21s gel, ARO, Tardis and various brushes used

Before



After



Fine clay, not too bad



Taped the car off, think I have enough neon going on? looks like studio 54:doh:



I was aiming for around 95% correction due to the time i had to work with the car. 3 step correction was used, M105, Powerfinish/205 and then 87mc.

Working powerfinish









Before



After





50/50 front bumper



One deep scratch needed sanding, before



During





After



Rear fender before



After



Rear bumper needed a few compounding hits







LP area before



During



After



Corrected the rest of the trunk area



DD yellow cutting pad compouding, more I use this pad more I like it



Middle step finishing



After final finishing (P203s wasnt used for this just pictured it on the car)



Cleaned up the tailpipes, Supersprint race exhaust on this car; heard it after the owner got it installed and it sounds perfect for the M3.





Tocuhed up the wheels and then sealed them with Rejex





Final shots, first time in a while I finished a car in the morning with time for pictures. Some people feel I dont post sun pics but as I state all the time, when there is strong sun after correction I post direct sun shots.

"The J" coming thru....................again. This car demonstrates passion for a superior finish with attention to detail which honestly can take alot out of you by the end of the job. Great work being performed by Dave @ Street dreams and Phil@ Detailers Domain alike in Northern New Jersey.
