Finally the sun has come out!!

Dandanbmw · 02-23-2016, 08:15 AM

Now the sun has come out I'm glad I bought Ruby black.

A few weeks ago I bought a Da polisher and have been waiting patiently to use it properly in 5 stages.

Compound, Chemi Kochi, Canuba Wax, Polish, Menzerna Sealant polish and also bought some purple rain for the wheels.

No more swirls thank god! Now I'm pretty happy with the finished results and I highly recommend getting a Da polisher.

Is that polisher pretty easy to use then? I looked at getting a machine polisher in the past but left it because if you didn't use it properly you could do damage (apparently). With results like that it looks like worth having a go.

saltyamigo · 02-23-2016, 08:18 AM

Nice job looks like its came up really well. Glad you've got sun it's snowing here.

All this talk of carbonara is making me hungry...

Car looks fantastic.

I did used to use swissol wax which had high canuba wax content in it.

Yes it's pretty easy to use and very effective.
For a beginner the one I bought DAS6 is spot on and was about £150 off EBay.
I don't know why it's taken so many years to get one but I'd definitely recommend.

Looks fantastic

and pisses me off even more I wasn't told of additional colours availability.

Haha, that's me rushing and not paying attention lol.

JustChris · 02-23-2016, 08:24 AM

Car looks great, when are you cleaning it?

Yes same here, sunny sunny North Wales, just cleaned my baby too. That Ruby Black looks really nice, very rare. The common as EB2 looking lovely in the sun with metallic flakes popping.

Got to love your BMW colour choices. Very nice car Dan

It's been sunny in south York's today and at last the tanzanite blue is starting to shine !

Kal101 · 02-23-2016, 01:47 PM

That is beautiful. Loving the subtle shades

Be too scared to use a machine polisher myself but looks like you've done good.

Dadwhitey · 02-23-2016, 01:52 PM
