First detail BMW X3 - Black - mommet - 06-03-2012 05:35 PM

Took delivery of the X3 in Aug 2011 and I was totally disgusted by the paint work.
Basically the whole vehicle looked like this.

1. Meguiars Ultimate Wash & Shine
2. Meguiars Clay kit

5. Pink Stuff - for the mags
6. Meguiars Endurance Gel

Nice work bud!

Someone had really made mince meat of that bonnet.

Also thanks for giving us something to read on Waxon, it's veeery quiet.

Nice work. Lol would love to see the Muppet that originally did the bonnet.

thanks guys...
the whole car looked like that.
It was done by a BMW repair centre. Did a polish & "buff" before delivery of the car.

Nice Work, I wouldn't have left the polisher on the floor like that though Tongue
