Hey all,
Just cataloging some work on a local 1988 e28 m5. Its been fully resprayed with 2 stage jet black several years ago. Interior is not in the best of shape and the owner plans on having the front seats redone.
Full 3 stage polish with Opticoat will be done here.
Spent a full 7 hours on the first stage.
1st degreased and cleaned the engine bay
