  • 07 Black BMW

    Might as well have some fun and call it a Gold Class detail, A lot of products from the Gold Class line were used, such a cool title by Meguiars. Didnt notice I used so many until the end when I outlined my process for this thread. Im trying to use this stuff up so I dont have stuff laying around when I finish buying everything in bulk.

    But..........


    I would have loved to do more to this car but we agreed on a wash/clay/wax. There were some light swirls on the hood that would have easily came out with some M205 or SwirlX on the D.A

    But I have to get in the habit of doing what I am paid to do and only giving out extra on some vechiles. I started out by washing it with Gold Class Car Wash Shampoo & Conditioner then spot clayed with the Smooth Surface Clay Kit and then simply waxed the car with Gold Class Liquid Wax. I treated the tires with Gold Class Endurance High Gloss and did the interior with Gold Class Vinyl/Rubber Protectant.

    Very nice.

    Is it just me, or did you miss a touch of wax below the Roundel on the drivers side front fender?

    The car looks great, the interior is SO clean! Great job!

    It makes me so happy to see that all of this guy's sports cars are Manuals. No slushboxes here!
    If a tree falls in the forest and there's nobody there to record the event, how can you be certain that there was a tree or even a forest to begin with?

      I think I may have in that pic, but then I wiped down all six cars when I was done so hopefully I got it then. If not, Im sure the owner will let me know. He acually has a sharp eye.

        The car looks great, but what looks like missed wax just may be a floor reflextion

          Nice work.

          Cool little car.

          It's just the reflection of the floor.

            I think it was a reflection. A few shots look like there is wax, but it moves around... pretty sure it is light reflecting off of the floor.

            Nice work!

              Nice work, I was wondering how you wash the cars to avoid water spots with the black cars?

                I use the sheeting method after I wash it and then follow up with two Water Magnets.

                      Great work again. The car looks great. The reflections are fantastic. It must be a pleasure working in such a large clean garage.

                        It looks great even without correction. Good job!

                            That's the great part about something like Gold Class that has polishing oils i nit as well as wax.

                            For one step simple details like this I bet it saves a lot of time while still getting good results.

                            Detailers clean places nobody see. Detailer see's things nobody else see. But if you ask a Detailer to see how a dress looks on a woman, they are blind.
