First time detailing e90 335i Pics

BobKingerman · 07-22-2010, 12:06 AM

This was my first time detailing the paint on my car. Spent about $100 at autozone on supplies. Used Meguiars Gold Class Car Wash, Mother's Clay bar with Mother's instant detailer, Meguiars show car glaze, and Meguiars hi-tech yellow wax. Also used rain-x on the windshield and Meguiars leather wipes on the interior. Used a two bucket wash technique with terry cloth towels and microfiber pads and towels to apply/buff the wax and polish. Took about 12 hours total. Also put on my e90Post stickers I got from stylin20.
