M135i mini detail

[MAW73]

Spent the morning yesterday giving my car a mini detail and a top up with Carpro Reload sealant.

Not visible in the photos but she's starting to pick up a few stones chips along the way now. Silver seems to mask the chips well though unless examining  closley. 12k a year and lots of motorway usage so its pretty unavoidable unfortunately.

Used meguiars endurance tire gel yesterday for the first time and it seems a very impressive product from first impressions. Easily applied with a little foam pad and as it's in gel form it doesn't streak down onto the alloys.











Of course it rained just as I finished.

Leather seats wiped over with baby wipes and the leather treated with AG leather care.

Looks great, how'd you find the Reload to use?

I'm a big fan of endurance tyre gel. It's messy though on your hands, I use a sponge to apply and as long as I don't layer it on too thick I get no sling.

That looks great, very nice job. 

Megs Endurance Gel is really good stuff.  Used to be my go to tyre dressing but I mainly use Quarts.  Megs is second fav though.  I always applied with the dedicated foam applicator.  I never got any sling but others have said it does.  It is messy though, no avoiding that!  Only thing that disappointed me with Megs is it doesn't last that long.  Quarts I find lasts much, much longer.

Is that Bilberry Wheel Cleaner I spy in the spray bottle and behind?  Best wheel cleaner IMO.

Interior looks great too.  Nice to see some colour leather for a change, as opposed to the usual Golf grey/black.   Baby wipes are good on leather, clean and condition at same time.

Thanks mate.

The reload is extremely easy to use. Spritz and wipe on with a microfibre and buff off with a second microfibre cloth working a panel at a time. It takes no more than half an hour to go right round the car. One of the best sealants on the market IMO.

You can water it down to 50/50 to use as a quick detailer if you want as well.

Thanks very much 

I will certainly buy the quartz tyre dressing next time around. That sound a great recommendation. Have you got a link to this product?

It certainly is bilberry wheel clean. Agreed works a treat.

Actually they weren't baby wipes they were my wife's face wipes. I'll be in trouble later when she sees I've used the pack. I best shoot down the shops to get some more

Hi MAW

There was a deal on the Quarts for forum members a while back but it's out of stock on their website now.  I've asked if they are getting any more in so I'll let you know in due course.  The website link is in this thread, but the true dressings not showing on the site atm.

The wife's face wipes, only the best for your BMW. 

I've heard good things about CarPro Reload sealant.  Plus ages ago someone posted some beading shots on here after using it, and the beading looked phenomenonal.   Might have to give it a go in my R when it arrives.

Neil, I dropped you an email yesterday.  Is the 50% forum discount off still on the Quarts stuff?
