mfatuation - BMW M3 - paint correction - Auto Finesse Illusion @ DetailersDomain.com
We got a call from Matt Stellas (aka mfatuation) shortly after Bimmerfest requesting a paint correction for this very special Santorini Blue M3. Apparently during transport back home to NJ, the car wash wiped down incorrectly. Take a look at the exterior paint correction.
We also opted for Auto Finesse Illusion due to its show car status. Enjoy! Exterior - Wheels were cleaned and prepped for Auto Finesse Mint Rims - Tires cleaned with Sonax Multi Star - Wheel wells were cleaned up - Washed with Auto Finesse Avalanche in the Uber Foam Cannon - Clayed with the New Uber Yellow Poly Clay and NanoSkin AutoScrub Fine Grade Wash Mitt - Door jambs were cleaned up - Dried - Tires dressed - Masking - Paint Measurement - Compound - Menzerna Fast Gloss FG400 - Final Polish - Sonax Perfect Finish 4/6 - Last step - Auto Finesse Illusion Show Car Wax - Inspection with Fenix, Brinkmann, and natural sunlight - Rubber and Plastics Treated - Exterior windows and mirrors cleaned and sealed - Exhaust tips cleaned and polished Products used Auto Finesse Avalanche Sonax Full Effect Wheel Cleaner Sonax Multi Star Multi Purpose Cleaner Auto Finesse Iron Out NanoSkin AutoScrub Fine Grade Wash Mitt Uber Yellow Poly Clay Bar Meguiar's M101 Menzerna Fast Gloss FG400 Sonax Perfect Finish 4/6 Auto Finesse Tripple Auto Finesse Illusion Show Car Wax Adam's Super VRT Auto Finesse Mint Rims Auto Finesse Mercury Metal Polish Tools Used Uber Microfiber Towels Uber Super Drying Towel Rupes LHR 21ES Rupes LHR 15ES Rupes LHR 75 Surbuf Pad Meguiar's Microfiber Cutting Pads Uber Foam Buffing Pads Wheel Woolies Über Boar's Hair Brush EZ-Detail Brush Here is the much awaited video Before shots Sonax Full Effect Wheel Cleaner in action Wheels were brushed then rinsed Decon Auto Finesse Iron Out used prior to NanoSkin Autoscrub Fine Grade Wash Mitt and Clay Bar Foaming with Auto Finesse Avalanche and washed down with and Uber Yellow Wash Sponge followed by the NanoSkin AutoScrub Fine Grade Wash Mitt Drying with an Uber Super Drying Microfiber Towel the imperfections on the paint bird droppings paint measurements taken masking the car Rupes Bigfoot action shot Removal of compounds and polish with an Uber Microfiber towel Surbuf pad used to remove the bird etching with Meg's M101 and Menzerna FG400 Following it up with the Meguiar's Microfiber Cutting Pad and Menzerna FG400 Getting into some of the tight spots 50/50 shot Before rear deck After rear deck Before rear bumper After rear bumper Before rear bumper Before side skirt After side skirt After compound and polishing Auto Finesse Tripple followed by Auto Finesse Illusion for that show car shine After shots Hope you enjoyed this one.

got a real quick quesion, you guys foam the car and let the foam dwell for a couple minutes....
then do you rinse off completely and then re-foam and wash with the foam on? or do you just let the initial foam dwell for a couple minutes and then just wash like normal with whatever carwash in the bucket using the initial foam as lubricity? hopefully that makes some sense? thanks for your time and help. |

Thank you again for everything Phil! I could not be happier with how the car turned out. I'll have to bring it by in the spring after the roads are clear again.
p.s. I'll be stealing some of those pics for my IG account!
