Detailing a BMW 435i Gran Coupe in Black Sapphire (F32)
After many years of loyalty, Alex decided to return to us when he upgraded from his VW Scirocco in Lime Green to the black beast that is the BMW 435i in Sapphire Black. The team will never say no to detailing a BMW, especially one like this!
Now, let’s delve into the meticulous process of detailing this magnificent BMW 435i in Black Sapphire.
The Custom Coats Detailing Process:
When detailing a BMW of this calibre, we went all out with expert precision and top-of-the-line products to achieve a picture-perfect finish.
Alloy Wheels: With the fresh powder-coated 19″ alloys in solid gloss black and nitrogen-filled tires, complemented by MSport Meridian Gold painted callipers, the wheels and brakes look new and stylish.
Vinyl Touches: The car received a newly wrapped lower front splitter, which was expertly vinyl wrapped in 3M 1080 Gloss Black G12. The lower splitter adds a dimension of aggressiveness, along with the new vinyl-wrapped kidney grills in 3M 1080 G12 Gloss Black. All vinyl wraps are skillfully applied by our team of 3M Authorized Vehicle Wrappers (AVW).
Moving on to the paintwork, a crucial element in the detailing process.
Paintwork: The paintwork underwent a meticulous treatment. It started with decontamination using fallout remover, followed by a thorough cleansing with AutoGlym Polar Blast snow foam. Further cleaning involved the use of a clay mitt to eliminate deep contamination. After rinsing the car and scrubbing and dressing the arches, the vehicle was dried using plush, edgeless microfiber towels. To ensure all moisture was removed from the gaps ahead of compounding, the vehicle was then brought into bay 2. We used our new BigBoi electric dryer for this purpose. Afterward, we applied Rupes Diamond Gloss Compound Ultra Fine Gel and then finished the car using R222 Concourse Carnauba Wax. The wax application was done by hand with a foam applicator, resulting in an intense wet-looking finish that can last up to six weeks.
Now, let’s shift our focus to the interior of the BMW.
Interior: The interior received special attention with Colourlock Leather Cleaner and Care. This treatment helps maintain and protect the vibrant color and luxurious texture of the vibrant red leather.
Glass: The glass was given a thorough cleaning and then protected with Gtechniq G6 Perfect Glass. This was followed by Gtechniq G5 ClearVision Glass Coat (formerly G3), which aids in repelling water droplets from the windscreen at speeds exceeding 30mph.
Tyres: The tyres were dressed with Poorboy’s Bold & Bright Gel, applied by hand using soft foam applicator pads.
Now that we’ve outlined the meticulous detailing process, let’s take a moment to appreciate the finished product.
