Default Had the BM detailed....

Took my car to James at www.ti22.co.uk to have it detailed, after James had seen the car he told me it was in a pretty bad shape with really bad swirls and really need about 3 days of work to get it 100%.
Being a daily driver and not a show car i decided to just have a 1 day detail for now and here are some pics of how it went.....

Before showing some of the Swirls in sunlight:






Now some 50/50 shot's, shows how grey the car looked before:





Some close up's of the car finished with a sun gun:





Pics of the car finished:





Really happy with the results, there are still some marks on the car but the improvement is massive, u can actually tell the car is Metallic Black now
Big thank you to James, did an awesome job

Very impressive job there Mate - the grey "covering" was totally spoiling the look of it, not that you could notice it on the before shots, but the side by side shots show an amazing difference

Looks like James has done another really good job there Deano I bet that looks a different car now, what have they said in work ? now you need to start a proper straight line clean habit
