Andrewbuch's E46 318i - Detailing thread

[andrewbuch]

So I thought I should start a thread on my car, Starting with how it looks currently & then as I progress I will update on it.

So to start, it does not look to bad from far, when its is clean..










Some bad RDS's on the bonnet, Wont get these out




Swirls on all panels, Found it difficulty to get them showing in the photos










Normal old age dirt in hard to reach places that normal washing does not get to
















Some contamination in the paint, like black stuff but it does not come off with washing, but when water gets on it it leaves clean water marks, this happens on most of the car, pollution etc I think is the cause


Wheel arches/wells


Some paint transfer from someone who must have bumped my car as it was defiantly not me


Cleaned the exhaust today as well




Some random reflection shots



E90 orange peal



Sorry for the crappy paintshopping of numberplate, dont have my laptop today so no photoshop..
