Recently detailed my e92 6mt

rcl · 05-04-2014, 09:15 PM

I started to detail it last thursday evening with a wash/clay/polish, left the sealant applied on overnight, than woke up friday and buffed it off and this is how she looked!

Washed with CG maxisuds, pinnacle clay bar used, megiuars 205 polish, then 2 coats of FK1000p

Unfortunately I didn't take any before shots, the paint wasn't in bad condition , just had some slight swirls.

Very nice!!! Turned out great!

Ok, now for a general question about leaving a sealant/wax/etc on overnight to "cure." If you don't have a garage, would this be a good idea with pollen this time of the year? I would imagine that you could etch the paint/create swirls.

What would you do? Rinse the car with the hazed product to run the pollen off then use a QD in conjunction with an MF towel to remove? Or just not let it cure overnight?

The pollen here is MD is terrible right now.
