This saw a trip out to BMW Cheltenham to carry out a new car prep for the client in which I did the Audi Q7 (http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=98386) back in January for

Vehicle was washed and then brought into workshop

First up was to remove the 330i badge using a heat gun and dental floss

Paintwork was then inspected and several area's on bonnet and roof needed wet sanding due to some etching. Correction was carried out using Menz Power Finish on a Megs Polishing pad with some area's requiring 3M FCP

I'm loving it mate, some serious attention to detail there, inside of the hardtop storage area place thingy!!! White is normally a cnut to get a proper shine on, but there is looks fantacker!

Car is identical to my Dads, apart from my Dad's is a Coupe and a 330d! lol But, white with Imola Red leather, IMO its a cracking combo!
