This was a full interior and exterior detail but it's the exterior that was immediately noticable as you will see!!

It was in that condition cause it has been sitting in a driveway under trees for nearly 4years.

Thanks for the replies guys :wink:

Ken it was just over 2days, on the morning of the third day was just to apply a second coat of a new wax which I'm very impressed with although I can't give you any info on it at the mo cause it was sent to me to put on test....and as such I don't know who makes it, I don't know what it's called, what I do know is that I think it has a VERY high carnuaba content and the finish is breathtaking and it's likely to cost £100+ 8)

Ali you'll have to pop over to our unit at Errol sometime........compare notes eh :wink: ........I'm sure we met at Star Performance a while back, we were there doing demos with the various machines.....Rotary, PC and hand application of various products like wax, you'll know a common mistake is for people to apply waaaayyyyyy too much eh LOL!!

Jaysus, schoolboy error - never post an image of your daughter with these vultures around...

pot/kettle faction.

PS - not keen on the car, but appreciate the workmanship there - top job. :thumbsup

Yeah the colour is an acquired taste....not mine either and it's an original BMW limited edition colour and not a respray too.......in the log book it is described as BLUE :lol: I think Stevie Wonder must have had a hand in naming the colour eh LOL!!
