The paint on this one was pretty good overall. A little soft, but no clearcoat problems.

I'll post the pictures of the new BMW 5 series that I detailed in another thread when I upload them. Great cars IMO, not the fastest, but damn the luxury is nice. I didn't use Zaino, looking to purchase it soon though. I used McGuires NXT wax, with claybar, and McGuires wash
