2015 BMW M3 - Mineral Gray - Modesta Glass Coating BC04

2015 BMW M3 - Mineral Gray - New Car Prep - Modesta BC04 - Next Level Coating
 
We received this brand new 2015 BMW M3 in the best possible way - directly from the customer immediately after it was delivered.  Even better the dealer did not touch anything - all the wrapper was still on the car!  Note: If you can ask for the delivery of your new car in this form the shop handling your new car prep, coating, and/or paint protection film installation is ahead of the game.  The only thing better than this situation would be that the customer would have flat bedded the car to us.  
 
Take a look at how we feel a new car should be delivered.

The ideal situation for us would be to have every new car delivered to us this way - all wrapped up from the factory.  No dealer installed paint imperfections.
 









 
Here we go, nothing like removing the wrapper off a brand new car!









Interior gets unwrapped


 
All the wrapper removed and adhesive cleaned off the paint 


 
Next up into the wash bay for a nice wash - pre soak, wash,decon, clay, wheels and tires





 
Uber Super Drying Towel soaking up all the water for a nice dry.


 
Clay bar

 
Sonax EX 0406 used to polish out any light paint imperfections before we move into the Modesta application

 
Looking quite nice after a the paint prep - Mineral Gray M4 in the background ....

 
Modesta Primer P-01A applied now we wait for the 3-4 hour cure time prior to Modesta BC-04 


 
After the BC-04 is installed we cure the paint under heat lamps.

Final shots of the exterior





 
Outside shots - Hard Candy Shine!  Some amazing depth, gloss, and clarity after the proper prep work and Modesta!
 
















 
Hope you enjoyed this one as much as we did.
That hard candy shell that Modesta leaves after a proper install is incredible.
