Oct 26 2017 BMW M3 (Grigio Telesto Pearl Metallic Grey)

This is actually the owner’s second M3; not sure what happened with the last one. But, he had his last one ceramic coated elsewhere; and for some reason or another, he decided to not go back to that shop. Instead, he chose us! The Grigio Telesto is such a awesome color, I got a little trigger happy with the photos. And — budget constrained us to a single step enhancement polish prior to coating this; so I enjoyed the challenge of trying to achieve the best finish in the single step too. What separates us — well for now, “me” - from the higher production detail shops is that we will find the best polish/pad combination to achieve the best finish for your paint, depending on that number of passes we’re going around the car. We’re not just using a standardized combination on every car. Every car has different paint, clear coat hardnesses, which means different results if you stick to just one combination. This Grigio Telesto was on the harder side, where we were able to achieve 70%+ improvement with just a single step. In the sun, it still looks great, and going into it the owner was OK with seeing some defects here and there. The piano black pillars obviously got a two step polish though.
