Journey At Ipoh Tambun With S1tl (BMW E46 & Saga LMST)

last 2 weeks i went back to ipoh with my girlfriend to see her parents and also have detailing session with S1tl. unfortunately i miss charity session with kc cause im going back on friday night. since he post the thread earlier than me im not gonna post more (refer to on friday night was really a tiring road trip back to ipoh after my work, spent 1 day with my girlfriend and her parents which is sunday (mother's day) on saturday 10am had breakfast with S1tl and start our detailing at 11am, i was shocked looking at the E46 when reach at his place, plenty rids (random isolated deep scratches) and deep swirls. not forget the car is a re-painted one, i mean is a really poor paint job (orange peel)




this are really deep one



the front hood was choose to test the products from least aggressive > aggressive, we picked Optimum Hyper Spray Compound and M105 Ultra-Cut Compound from Meg's. we set 2 different area to test before we move further.

the weather is so hot that i almost lose concentration while i complete the finishing plus i have dinner at 6.30pm 10% of the swirls we cant remove and the rids. next month gotta continue, please stay tune! on sunday after lunch, my girlfriend's brother hit the gate when he was trying to reversing the car, the paint have peel off badly at the rear fender and im there to help him to remove it.
