car looks great, but you shouldve came to nyc and coordinate your time with our bear meet. also, we have phil (post #2) he is fminus of east coast!

i dont know if your familiar with menzerna polishes, but they are the best and works great with a 7424! it will correct all paint flaws... scratches, holograms, swirls etc... , definitely will save you 10+ hrs of driving! let me know if you need help in choosing.
I have (or should I say had) all the Menzerna polishes, SIP, FF, FA, and just sold them. I couldn't get the holograms out with my PC. I have zero regrets about making the trip to NC. My friends & family who thought I was nuts to drive my car 10 hours for a detail, totaly understand now after seeing the write up JL did on the detail on detailingbliss.com forum with the before & after pics.

Not only did JL do a great job on my detail, he spent time talking to me about how to care for the car afterwards, proper washing, quick detailing , waxing, etc. I know there are a lot of great detailers out there, Phil in NY, FMINUS in CA, JL in NC, and many more. I was such a geek, writing every thing down in a notebook, and rushing home to type it up, with the aid of my Valentine One, which saved me twice!

I am a true BMW fanatic to want my car (my daily driver) to look that awesome.

Don't you just love these forums? I have FMINUS to thank for suggesting the DB forum for car details. I found this forum, e60.net, from the suggestion of a fellow Ohioan. What a find, it has helped me spend over $5,000 on this car since January.

JL sent me a few pics he took of my car, and his camera does his work so much more justice than mine. I am so envious of a great detailers work.

Can you provide a link to the write-up on detailing bliss? I would love to see how he tackled jet black. It looks stunning.
