2011 BMW 740, regular customer, 3rd time we've been out to detail it since August. Other than it being dirty from recent rains and a nacho cheese spill on the front driver's seat it was in pretty good shape. Appears the owner has been able to keep it away from sprinklers, so no water spot removal like the last two times.



Have to comment on the wheels. Seriously, who thought all those grooves in the barrel of the wheel was a good idea for a car that has brake dust issues? Does anyone take into consideration those wheels will have to be cleaned at some point? :wall



Exterior:



ONR wash, no need to clay, paint still very smooth

Optimum Finish polish using a white LC polishing pad and my Meguiars G110 DA polisher

Optimum Car Wax to protect

Armor All on tires/fenderwells



Interior:



Woolite HE/water at 20:1 dilution to clean the leather and vinyl

BioKleen Traffic Lane Cleaner at 32:1 dilution to clean the carpets and mats

Optimum Protectant Plus to dress the vinyl

Leather Master's Leather Vital to condition the leather

Finally got time to clean my own car for the first time in about a month. Actually, I've had time but the weather overall for winter has been reasonably mild so I'd rather ride my bike after cleaning other people's cars all day instead of cleaning my own. :lol



ONR, single bucket method. Only these two pics, too dark when I finished to get non-blurry pics.
