Detailer's Domain: BMW M5 with Einszett Glanz

Here goes an BMW M5 (e39 chasis) with Heritage package (full leather interior)
This car was never fully done since the second owner picked it up. Here we have a car that needed some minor paint correction and a nice polish and very durable wax , we choose Einszett Glanz for the job.
The interior was shot to say the least, so we used Einszett Cockpit and Leather Master products to clean it up.
Engine was quite dirty so we used our go to P21S Autowash and for the wheels P21S Wheel Cleaner Gel. The rest of the tools and products used are below as usual. Enjoy.

Products used:
Optimum Power clean (to strip the wax etc)

Uber Clay Bar with Optimum Instant Detail Spray and Gloss Enhancer
Menzerna Power Gloss Compound - yellow ccs pad and wool pad
Menzerna SIP - orange ccs pad
Menzerna PO85RD - white ccs pad
Menzerna Top Inspection
Einszett Glanz

Wheels and Tires
Swissvax Pneu
P21S Wheel Cleaner Gel
Boar’s Hair Wheel Brush
Foam applicator pads

Interior:
Leather Master Rapid S (leather cleaner)
Leather Master Vital (Conditioner)
Einszett Cockpit

Engine Detail:
P21S Autowash
Boar’s Hair Brush
Adam’s In and out
Black Wow

Glass inside and out:
Lusso Glass Polish
Uber Glass MF Towels

Tools:
Infratech 5300

While driving the M5 back to the site I found the windshield wiper fluid was low as a courtesy we filled It up for him

Presoak with P21S Autowash

After shot of the engine (we used Adam’s In and Out and Black Wow on the trim)

Wheels:
Before:


Wheels being presoaked with P21S Wheel Gel and Tires and undercarriage presoaked with P21S Autowash used the Ace Powersticks to clean the barrel and the face was cleaned up with a Boar’s Hair Brush

After shots of the wheels dressed with Swissvax Pneu

The interior for this M5 was for lack of better words shot, dust everywhere and sun block all over the door panels and front leather seats. We cleaned up all the leather with Leather Master Rapid S and conditioned them with Leather Master Vital. All the plastic trim with cleaned up and protected with Einszett Cockpit.




After shots:


Door panels before Leather Master treatment:

fantastic job and beautiful car!

Just curious, but does buckling the seat belts (like in the after picture of the backseat) have any positive effect or did you do that so they weren't in the way?
