Default Detailer's Domain: BMW M3 Paint Correction/Full In

A 2009 BMW M3, okay no bashing the customer has absolutely no time in to keep up with this car. It sits outside and its a daily driven car. He's in the field and he lives in it. So after this full paint correction inside and out he has agreed to give us the car every Friday to upkeep it and keep it looking like this.

Take a look.

What was done -

- Wheels were prepped with Sonax Wheel Cleaner and cleaned up with various brushes
- Tires were spritzed down with P21S Total Autowash and washed down
- Wheel wells were spritzed down with P21S Total Autowash
- Wash down and rinsed
- Door jambs were cleaned up
- Clayed
- Dried
- Paint inspected and measured
- Wheels were protected with Swissvax Autobahn
- Wheel Wells were cleaned and dressed with Adam's Undercarriage Spray
- Tires dressed with einszett Vinyl Rubber Care
- Masking
- 2 Step Paint correction (Meguiars M105 with an Uber Green, and Menzerna PO106FA with an Uber Blue)
- Inspection with Fenix, 3m Sun Gun, Infratech, and natural sunlight
- Menzerna Power Lock
- Rubber and Plastics Treated

where do you buy all you supplies? Is that site the best prices? Can they be found at local retailers like autozone/pepboys? I'm going to be getting supplies soon to do my cars. Been seeing post like these at driveaccord.net too.

Its amazing how clean a car looks before... but then you realize how far from it it is after an awesome detail. simply outstanding.

cant wait to unswirl my accord.
