Just bought a new project, an old 3series BM

It is going in for paint and I know the car will come back looking like new and Id like to keep it that way as much as pos!

Could you give me a list of starter kit I should be thinking of, from cleaning products to sponges.

Also a rough idea on price and where to get these from would be great.

Thanks for any help you can give me

 

Basic items to cover would be....

Wash Mitt
Drying towel
Shampoo

A paint cleanser / glaze to help clean the paint chemically but not abrasively..... May not be needed straight away if the car is being painted obviously.

Sealant and / or a wax

Applicators and Microfibre cloths to apply and remove the wax etc.

The closest colour to Dolphin Grey I've worked on lately is this:


If thats the sort of finish you want, not a problem...

Give me a buzz or pm, and I'll give you a price.

Cheers.
Alex.
