Nicely done! How do you like M101 compared to others, particularly UC?

UC is a good start

When u progress u will be looking at M105

Then ultimately M101

Just like when u learn driving any car will do

When u progress u desire a more powerful car

Now u might desire only Ferrari and Lamborghini mclaren Bugatti
Heheheheheh

‘BlueEFFICIENCY’ – the name given to its efforts to reduce energy consumption. And when the German giant tackles an engineering challenge, historically the results have been spectacular.




PROS
Superb interior and exterior style; BlueEFFICIENCY technology


CONS
No reversing camera; lacks low-down throttle response




always begin body prep with clay after proper wash down









Water mark can be a huge problem in our country because of the mineral content in the water and acid rains . You may have noticed those nasty spots just won’t come off after you have rinsed off your vehicle or your car during wash. Water mark are caused water and the mineral content found in our main pipe - water. Water that lands on a vehicles surface whether its glass or paint, will bead up slightly depending on the surface tension. On cars with very poor paint or extremely oxidized paint, the paint will be more porous and the water will seep “into” the paint more and not cause as much water spotting. But on cars like this, water spots will generally be the least of your problems. On newer cars and vehicles that are kept in much better condition, the problem will be more visible as the water will bead up much more on the surface. Usually water beading is a good thing but when city water is left standing on a paint surface, it’s not such a good thing. The water needs to be wiped off and dried to prevent water spotting. If city water is left on the surface the sun will evaporate the water leaving only the minerals behind. These minerals will adhere, or worse, “etch” into the paint surface and bond with the paint causing an unsightly blemish ring, or water spot.




WASH - OCS with All Purpose cleaner to strip away any pre existing wax
SURFACE PREP - Clay with onr as lube
Wipe down with - ONR as QD
Paint correction - initial - Makita M9227 with polish pad...wouldnt able to resolve water mark
Move to heavier correction combination - OPT Cutting Pad with Meguairs M101 at 1200-1500 rpm
Finish with Flex Meguairs - Soft buff foam pad with Meguairs M205


Protection -
Opti Lense for head lamp
Opti Fabric for seats
