    poly sprayed new Z4

    So I got the Z4 today and man what a car. the new 4 cyl turbo is amazing - more torque and same hp as old 6 cyl. That`s the good news - the bad news is the car definitely needs to be clayed. Took the baggie with me and swept the surface as soon as I got near the car and yep...small bumps like sand. So it needs to be clayed.

    No time this weekend so I washed with glossworkz and BF poly sprayed it for now. Now to go drive it to dinner!

    • clay
    • BF TPnS - gg6 with green pad
    • CS
    • Poly spray


    It`s a proven winner combo and about a 90 min job for me...

    Re: poly sprayed new Z4

    I did discover something about BMW trim - it is extremely "porous" and rough-like and does hold some of the blackfire TPnS and stain it a bit. ISP cleaned it off but I will tape this car before I polish it...
