2010 (E-90) M3 Correction Detail
Recently complted job, this modified daily driver and track car has the "Go & stop" with the Supercharger and Brembo's. As a daily the car had quite a bit of built up dirt, marring and fallout on all the surfaces so a prolonged wash/decon was carried out.
Dirt examples before the wash commenced.

Very few correction pics were taken as the color was difficult to get the defects, typical scratches from opening the trunk.

The "Space Grey" color is forgiving.........the Black "B" Pillars are not.

With so much fallout on the car I would go back during the correction step and clay some more so I would not remove anymore clear than needed.

I always like to do the engine bay before the ultra fine polishing step, then complete that task and ultimately apply whatever LSP is going on the finish.
