Neel's 98 M3.

[CMT]

Came out great. I used the same process that I am using on my car for this season, but that I only got halfway through due to the car once again fniding itself on a wrecker on its way back to ICS. But enough about that.

For Neel's car I used Poorboy's SSR1 for the prep stage and something new for 05 for the polish/glaze step - Blackfire's Gloss Enhancing Polish. This stuff is just insane! The Blackfire application left a slicker, wetter, and deeper look than the Vanilla Moose/EX-P combo, with all of the hammeringly clear reflection of the final EX-P layer. Comparing the Blackfire to Vanilla Moose, I found that it was not as versatile as the VM in that it is ABSOLUTE DEATH TO BLACK MOLDINGS. If you think EX-P is bad, this stuff is the worst, and that is a sharp contrast to Vanilla Moose which can be used as a molding dressing and window cleaner.

I then finished by adding a coat of EX-P as sealant/topper - However, I honestly think I liked the raw Blackfire look better, despite the car looking absolutely amazing for a silver car that is tough to get deep reflections out of the paint - So I am ordering the Blackfire Paint Protection polymer-based topper to see how it works on my car along with a special wax that I have been waiting for for a week now. :/

Where can we get this stuff?!?!! Incredible job. Also what do you use to apply it? Buffer? Hand? THanks!

Nice Job... Iam looking for something to rebirth the gloss on my paint. I want it to be like white glass. Would that blackfire do the trick? if so, where can I get it?

I am jealous Neel! You are lucky to now have the master of the shine so close by.

I am going to have to give these a whirl Chris. My paint is beyond trashed.

Um, holy shit, that looks amazing. I think there is hope yet for my car. I just put in an order with Superior, should have the stuff by this weekend. Chris, you still going to be available this Saturday? I want my car to look like that too, damn....
