Summer Detail Photos :: Northwest Auto Salon :: BMW ///M5

Took the M5 to Blake and crew on Friday to get my summer detail.

Two-stage polish was topped off with Zymol Concours Glaze.

Between this and the CI, it's been a good June for your M5! I'll have to call Northwest and see what they'd recommend for my car. The Interlagos really looks great in your pics.

Thanks guys.

29 days of sun . . . I get my car detailed and it rains all weekend.

I did manage to take a few quick photos today in between the rain.

From their website:
  • 24 Step - Hand wash over the entire vehicle, wheels, arches, and door jams.
  • Full paint and window decontamination with Clay Bar treatment (removes embedded road grime, tar, paint splatter).
  • Vehicle is hand dried using microfiber towels and synthetic absorber towels.
  • 2 - Stage machine polish with Menzerna (Ceramic Clearcoat polish used on vehicles with the new Cerami-Nanoparticle Clearcoat) to remove residual protection, remove paint defects, restore brilliance and shine.
  • A synthetic sealant (your choice of Menzerna, Klasse, Rejex, Collinite) applied over paintwork, headlights and rear lights.
  • All chrome and stainless steel cleaned and polished.
  • Painted wheels receive a coat of Klasse Sealant Glaze sealant and Polished wheels will be polished with a metal polish that contains a protectant.
  • Tires dressed with a non-splatter, non-oily dressing.

Wow! Look at that paint shine! Your car looks FANTASTIC! Our friend has his 996 done at NWAS and it looked like it came right off the showroom floor!

I love BLUE and yours is one of the best if not the best colors. I appreciate the attention to detail since I spent Friday doing my car without the same results.
