E92 AW detailed (lots of pics)

Saturday i detailed this AW E92 together with the owner. He wanted to learn how to clean his car and keep it in mint shape, as the day they picked it up at the dealer. The day began with a cup of coffee and getting to know each other.

-meguiars All Purpose Cleaner
-meguiars All Metall Polish
-meguiars Proffesional Glass Cleaner
-meguiars clay bar
-meguiars Last Touch

-meguiars Deep Crystal Paint Polish
-meguiars M21 Synthetic Sealent
-meguiars M16 Paste Wax
-meguiars interior Tech Protectant
-meguiars High Gloss Tyre Protection Gel
-meguiars Scratch-X
-meguiars Rich Leather Cleaner and Conditioner
-meguiars microfiber towels
-meguiars applicator pads

BEFORE:








After washing the car en cleaning the rims, we started with cleaning the car with the clay bar. After a small demonstration and some explanation of the product i put the owner to work



Result of the dirt that came of the back bumper.



Then i put the owner to work with the Deep Crystal Paint Cleaner and Paint Polish. In the meantime i startde with cleaning the interior.

A few 50/50 shots of the result in the interior. the left is treated the right side isn't





The finished result







Also cleaned and treated the parts in the engine bay

AFTER:




The final result of the car


















And to top off the day took a few pics of our rides together. The day before i just installed the new front with the molded lip. I haddend got a chance to take some daytime pics so this was a good opportunity

Dont worry dude, this shot was taken right after i did the first half, after a couple of minutes it dry's up and it wont leave any fingermarks when you touch it. It just gives it a clean and shiny look. I've used other products before and they stay oily and greasy and dont stay on that long, most products even give off a nasty smell. Because of the compound it protects the rubber and vinyl of UV radiation. It keeps your interior shiny and deep black for a long time. And most importantly it doesn't smell. It,s odourless. My interior was done just before the winter started 3 months ago and it still looks deep black.

Looking good.

One thing I really like about AW cars is that it looks great regardless of the type of cleaning products you used.
