BMW E90 - Arctic Grey - Vincent - 28-09-2010 11:04 AM

After a long weekend away I felt rather empty not having detailed a car so I thought bugger that... Let me take a day off work and work on a car instead... ha ha ha

I received my BlackFire Wet Diamond kit from Carn last week Thurs and was DYING to try it out and see what all the Hype is about.

The car arrived and was looking in very good shape. No major stand out problems to contend with. Although the Clear Plastic head lights were pretty pitted and needed some work.

The Blackfire really is awsome and it really lived up to all the hype surrounding it. Def going to be my go to Sealant and Wax for a long time to come.

Some before pics to start with

Some paint defects before... Hard to get these on Camera. Actually were a lot more swirls than what you see in the pics. And also water spots.

Nice work Vincent!!! ClapClapClap

Very nicely done Vincent.

I am a big fan of the Blackfire Wet Diamond, which is why my recent order from Dave included a 64oz bottle Bluebiggrin. It leaves an incredibly silky smooth finish and I can't help myself and I end up caressing the paintwork when I'm done Icon9.

Although not always possible when working on a client's car, I like to apply a layer of BFWD and then leave the car overnight. The next morning I top the BFWD with Blackfire #24 Carnauba or Meguiars M26. Absolutely brilliant wet look finish.
