Detailed the Beast Today

[morals]

nice detail and nice house.

With results like that, I'm wondering why you think the SIP is necessary. Are there flaws that were covered by your wax that you are still hoping to get rid of? I'd be tickled pink if I was able to get that finish on my jet black baby.

No I was happy with the results but there is always room for improvement!

Actually I will be trying the SIP on E55

BTW: The Poor Boys Wax gave the car a deeper wet look finish. I had heard the wax actually makes the color look darker but to see it in person was just wow!

The pictures don't do the final results justice but next time around I will be using the Menzerna SIP & Orange Pad and then follow it with Menzerna Nano & Blue Pad. I used the UDM which made the polish process money! I spent about 4 hours completing the process. The UDM is a life saver. Practice makes perfect and I have a S-430 and E55 lined up to work on Let me know what you guys think. I tried to take the best pictures I could. It was sunny on/off. Picture link below.

Note: The picture names indicate what was applied at the time.
MZNANO --> Menzerna Nano
KAIO --> Klasse AIO
PBWaxBlue --> Poor Boys Natty Blue Wax
etc....

Are you coming to George Brockleman's little get together this summer at his house in Great Falls? Your ride looks very similar to AliUSA's ride! He took some pics of his ride when we were doing exhaust comps at my house in Belmont!
