Hi everyone, Mike here. Today's detail is a Monaco Blue 335i Sedan. The client found me over at E90post. I had my good friend Jay come by to assist me on the detail, and we were able the achieve great results within a tight time frame (midway through Jay received an unexpected phone call so he had to leave as soon as we can finish the car).

As you will see in the before shots (Which there were only two), you will see that the swirls were very minor, so big thumbs up to the client for doing great upkeep with his car!

I know, I know, less talkie and more pictures, right?

This will hopefully give you an idea how dirty the wheels were. You see Sonax in action here:

As we didn't really have the time to stop and take during photos, here is a shot of the wheels cleaned and being foamed down :

While I foamed the rest of the car, Jay got a hold of my camera and caught me in action!

We let the foam dwell for a bit:

Time for that pressure rinse!

Here are the two before shot I spoke of earlier. Like I said, this car was in great condition for being 4 years old, the clay we were using barely picked up anything!!!

It's a shame we were a bit rushed so we couldn't get as many befor shots as we could, but I was able to get some great afters while Jay gave some helpful tips to the client!
