  • BMW 523i 2007

    Hi All,

    Just recently did my dad's car. This BMW bought second hand and never been polish, just wax all the time.

    Still, before the paint was a bit dull, black paint was like hazing grey, so not good at all.

    I did some correction, some swirl and scratch still there, but I didn't like the grey hazy paint.

    So the tools are:

    1. DAS-6 DA with Surburf Pad and LC Flat pad polish
    2. UC
    3. Swirl X
    4. Mothers QD for wipe down before Sealant
    5. Zaino Z5
    6. Zaino Z2
    7. SV Smaragd for bonnet and trunk only
    8. Hot n Shine tyres
    9. Zaino Agressive clay

    It turns out not bad, well good enough but not as my expectation. Weather just not on my side(35 degrees).

    8 Hours of work and tons of sweat.

    Here's the pic before:


    After UC+SwirlX:



    After Sealant and SV Smaragd(SV for Hood and trunk only)










    Thanks all

    Comment appreciated.

      Great job. Extremely wet finish. Why did you only use Smaragd on the bonnet and trunk?

        @ all

        Thanks

        @Shawn

        I want to put on all panel but I need to go somewhere. So end up only 2 panels using Smaragd. If tomorrow no one use it, I will put another coat of Smaragd on other Panel.

        Cheers

          Wow! So much reflections, I just can't pronounce that Swissvax wax.

            Yes it's hard to pronounce.

            That's why they changed to Swissvax Concorso. Same product, different name only.

            Thanks for the compliment.
