Elevated Car Care: 2013 BMW 3.28i

[Hamza Nadeem]

Here we have a 2013 BMW 3.28i with only 400 KM on it. There are some stains and swirls we have to take care of.

 

Here is a preview before I start.

 

 

 

 

Taking care of the tires, rims, and wheel wells

 

Here’s all the dirt and silicon from the tires releasing

 

 

Starting on the body

 

Washed 2 Bucket Method

 

Iron Remover doing its thing

 

Brought inside to be clayed and polished

I found some tree sap or something attached to a door handle

I forgot to take pictures of it being clayed but nothing significant came out

As you can tell, we do quite a bit of BMWs

 

 

I polished the black pillars, as people always find a way to scratch these before customer delivery

 

Here they are finished and flawless

Here’s the difference

Before

After

 

 

I also polished the black side mirrors

 

Before:

After:

 

I did the fine details with a 4” pad

 

I found this factory defect on the paint but it’s in a very inconspicuous spot and wet sanding it would reduce it quite a bit but then I’d also take paint life around the spot as well, I’d rather leave it and come back to it if really bugs the owner.

 

I opti coated the car and of course forgot to take pictures but here’s some while I did the rims

 

 

Here she is fully done. It was overcast so there are no sun pictures

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I would like to thank BryansBestWax, who handed this detail to me

 

This vehicle was Opti Coated

Hahaha. I am getting bored of doing F30's. Always a pleasure handing off some work to a stand up guy. Too bad you won't be around the shop.

Not fleet, all individual customers. I am on a F30 kick. Spring was GTR, then Subaru now Bimmers. Whatever pays the bills.

Very nice work. I'd love to have that fleet account.
