TBH havent really looked closely to the peel effect, prob masked by all the swirls lol!

When I first saw KDS prices, I thought they were taking the sipp until I read that thread.

They give you more paperwork than after a service and mot!

yeh, i think on their prices it says £500+dependant on the car.

It is amazing though, you can actually see the hump in the bonnet "in your face" and it no longer looks stealth.

Interesting comments about lots of bmw owners complaining about new car paintwork. It is shocking that they should come out to you like this after youve spent £50k plus.

I think it is worth it, but just depends on how much of a perfectionist you are I guess.

Agreed, BMW along with Honda have utter w*nk paint finishes from factory.
Well worth the end result, on a black car would be like glass.

Better not wetsand it through the clearcoat at the creases, corners end so on.

And this job was done on a new car!!!

Imagine the clearcoat has 'sunken' in after all these years, due to heat, sun, washing and so on; on our cars!

Aslong as you have a block/sander it doesn't take long to wet sand a full car.

Any pc'd cars at my work are fully wet sanded to remove any imperfections.
