So, 4PiPeR has sent his recently acquired new daily for some much needed paint correction, and protection.
This was a rather challenging detail in the timeframe it was completed, but the results still speak for themselves.
We only got around to actually working on the car at 10:00 and pushed to finish before nightfall as we usually do.
After washing, and the clay step had been finished, this is what we had left to correct.

The correction process was finally rounded off using a soft pad and fine polish.
The car was washed again, after which the Opticoat application process started.
Opticoat, unlike a sealant or wax is rather a hard -wearing, ceramic clearcoat with outstanding scratch resistance. It also withstands even harsh chemicals as Caustic Soda PS: found in most degreasers today. *hint*

The end result was a 135i that doesnt now only sound wicked, but looks the part too.
It will be returned to us for a final coat of Wax this coming weekend to finish the work on the paintwork.

A big thanks to Neesh for the opportunity.
Also, thanks to Brett and Rish for the visit and company, and especially the awesome lunch.
