Repairing the Paint of the carbon roof.
 
Hello,

As you all know, the Carbon roof of the CSL isn't available anymore at BMW. So when you have some stone chips or stains in the carbon roof, theres a problem.

We've had the same problem with our own CSL, so we experimented with it to repair it. (in our Body/sprayshop) By using special Carbon repair filler/primer/paint.

The result was amazing!

We are located in the Netherlands in the neighborhood of Utrecht. We want to help other CSL/M3/BMW Enthousiasts from Holland, Belgium or Germany to fix their Carbon roof. Because its one of the nicest features on the CSL and its a pitty when it brings your whole M3 down.

It is not my intention to advertise here, but to help people with the same problem.

Enjoy the pictures!

Greetings,

The original paint out of the factory didn't stick to the surface, we used compressed air to blow everything off. We are official repairing point of BMW, so we repair allot of bmw's, and this isn't very common. The normal quality standard of BMW paint is very high, so we didn't expect this to fall off that quick.

That looks great.
I have a pretty big blemish on my roof and have been holding off for a replacement.
Reason is that I don't really trust anyone to give a "factory finish" if they rub it back and re lacquer.

That finish you have done there looks superb :smokin: :thumbs: :thumbs:
Don't fancy a trip to Scotland do you?? lol :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry:
