BMW M135i - New Car Detail with Ceramic Coating

We were lucky to have this brand new BMW M135i in for a protection detail. The owner knew how important it was to get the protection slapped on straight out the box. He also knew to avoid the main dealership coating offer and take it to us to carry out a more thorough protective application service. We opted for our 2 year Carpro Cquartz Ceramic coating, however before this we ran a one stage machine polish to clean up all the defects caused by the dealer. This made sure the paint was in perfect condition before locking it all in with the protective coating. Often missed when purchasing this service from the main dealerships.

Starting with the pre rinse using bug remover and snow foam, followed by a high pressure rinse to loosen all the dirt. This allowed us to continue on with the safe hand wash along with the wheels which were chemically decontaminated and sealed with a protective wet coating. We then carried out our 3 stage paint decontamination service including clay bar to remove all embedded contaminants that cannot be removed during the hand wash stage followed by a second wash to remove leftover chemical products. The car was rinsed with our 0ppm de-ionised water solution and dried thoroughly, ready for the paint correction.

After a thorough paint inspection, we could see there wasn’t too much damage to the paint because of the age, just the usual swirls to tidy up.

After a full IPA wipe down removing all polish residue we applied our protective coating, locking in all the correction and polishing while keeping the car protected when out on the road. For this the owner upgraded to our 2 year ceramic coating package which has amazing defensive capabilities against swirls, light scratches and watermarks to name a few, perfect for a new car ready for winter.

The alloys received a chemical decontamination to remove all the tar spots before we also applied a ceramic coating.

We also polished the chrome tailpipes along with an interior clean and tyres glossed, the car is ready for its life on the road, another good decision from a buyer and taking their new car to a professional rather than the main dealerships.
