Detailer's Domain: e90 M3 Paint Correction/Full Interior

A 2009 BMW M3, okay no bashing the customer has absolutely no time in to keep up with this car. It sits outside and its a daily driven car. He's in the field and he lives in it. So after this full paint correction inside and out he has agreed to give us the car every Friday to upkeep it and keep it looking like this.

Take a look.

- Wash down and rinsed
