  • BMW ultimately detail by KC's

    Finally managed to get everything together



    our new family member - gorgeous looking 39er


    hmmmmm


    but under proper lighting


    I thought i saw some only but...badly & horrendously....


    more threats from animals or negligent of mechanics


    more.... mother nature or Human error???


    more....others car passenger or our very own passenger


    Threats is an expression of an intention to inflict pain, injury, evil, or punishment. 2. An indication of impending danger or harm

    more..........shoe stains


    stains at door jams......


    more swirls


    very visible swirls - so much so look like CC premature failure



    plastic handle - paint oxidation


    after my Favourite ONR wash......deeper cleaning


    Power clean dilution 1: 5 water

    Just you see & now you dont




    more side steps cleaning


    at the lower internal door panel


    another brushes for highly contaminated area - such as these or engine area


    ma ma mia
    Look at what i found
    Chewing Gums like tars stains


    I choose the least aggressive way.....


    ta da


    the usual suspect...

    TARS
    the most easy & effortless...effective....safe.... tar remover


    ta da....

    only scratches left - to be polish off

    before

    ta da


    TAR education - TIPs

    whenever after any 2 x 2 feet area clayed - we should stop & check for any Visible sighted contaminants - such as tars, dust, sands or brake dust

    Note
    Failing to do such - you might transferred A to B & contaminate another area with scratches..etcs...

    STOP! In the name of Love - before you hurt me!!!



    remove them prior folding to a new area & continue to clay the next area



    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    once preps is done - now I have a surface above free from contaminants - moving to paint corrections



    swirls

    very visible fine line cut - is done only professionally - regular car wash damages!!!!

    threats inflicted professional by car washes (or road side ones)


    SWIRLS is usually inflicted by our habits & the wrong way of handling washing , also techniques (wrong way of shampooing - circulating) & material used - such as sponges, worn out mitts/microfibers, drying cloth - cotton cloth - old rags, old t-shirts, jeans la....etcs...as our clear coat is only 2/1000th part of an inch

    therefore I make it a point to change my Microfibers once every 3-4 months to prevent


    a 50/50% area set



    after compounding - with LC Double sided wool


    ta da




    driver side



    cuts & deeper scratches - suspected - as it is always park at the narrow drive way - so much so, scratches inflicted - while gliding out from car!!!



    Ta da -


    after paint corrections & levelling



    more swirls from washing !!!!!


    means more work!! ta da


    moving to left side




    more
    deep scratches


    ta da


    clarity restored


    hood area

    swirls

    after paint correction



    premature paint failure due to car washing


    now


    door handle scratches


    ta da - as though giving it a brand new paint



    scratches - negligent from previous workshop


    ta da


    Passenger left side door - scratches & stains before


    now


    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ BEFORE ++++ AFTER

    plenty of swirls - before


    ta da



    BACK TO THE FUTURE!!!
    just finish compounding with OSREN velvet cutting pad & followed by LC Double sided Wool pad & LC Cutting pad!!!!!

    VISIBLE HOLOGRAM!!!! paint defect inflicted by car detailers


    Spot me contest??


    after finishing with polishing pad with OPTIMUM Hyper spray polish (excellent working time )


    it is gone & former glory is being restored!!!!


    clarity & definition redefine


    stone chips before


    now



    my magic portion
    specially - premix for my UDMs





    more chips - BEFORE


    MAGICALLY YOURS


    before


    now




    YESTERDAY!!! All my trouble seems so far away


    Can you see the rainbow come!!!


    another sign of premature - CC failure!!



    now after paint correction & premantly Opti-Coating


    after much careful paint corrected & re-inspected - all over again & again prior coating- as opti coat becomes a permanent part of the ride new paint system


    Opti-Coat provide a superior clear coat film that is highly resistant to chemical etching, harder than factory clear coat to reduce swirls and scratches, and a permanent hydrophobic surface that is easier to clean and stays cleaner for longer. as it does not get degrade and cannot be removed by chemicals such as cleaners wash or even degreasers

    definitions detail


    see how bad is this back light - abuse by the road side car washes


    after detail


    before


    after being polish by Optimum hyper spray polish








    ++++++++++++ Ladies & gentleman presenting to you our new family member ++++++++++++++




    remember before


    ta da



















    z4 look


    now its time to enjoy the journey





    Tools required:-
    1. Makita M9227 Rotary
    2. LC Backing plate, wool Pad, Cutting pad & Megs Polishing pad (Osren Velvet Cutting pad)
    3. T.I.M.E ( the most expensive part of car detailing) - 24 hours ++ over span of 2 days...

                              its an drop on & spread products - have to be done with great discretion & carefully

                              cos it any imperfectness cant be remove once coated
