BMW 3-series Detail

Pretty neglected and scratched.

notice the bottom black (well..grey in this picture) trim. It appeared faded but it was actually just a low quality wax built up. it took A LOT of scrubbing with some All Purpose Cleaner to get it all off.

I ran out of In and Out Spray for the bottom grille!

How'd those scratches turn out? Rest of it came out very nice! Hate when I run outta product

like you did with the I&O

scratches came out good but I burned through a yellow 4" pad because of all the passes it took

In a pinch, try VRT and water (mixed about 2/3 VRT to 1/3 water) in a spray bottle. I used this when I&O was unavailable.
