Got this car from a member at e90post.
Took a different approach on this car. The car was pretty clean but needed a some clay and more of a light polish /sealant/and wax.
I decided to use Einszett Metallic, followed by Einszett Glanz, and finished with Swissvax Crystal Rock.
The interior needed a nice clean up. And the rest was pretty much the detail work.
