Latest pictures of paint condition...
Exterior and interior care has involved the use of Zymol products, since day one when I leased
this car and brought it home, April 1983. Everybody has their favorite care products, but few can show what 23 years of using
these products has resulted in. There is no question that Zymol products are excellent products, given the condition of my
BMW.
This is the original paint! It's always difficult to show exterior paint
condition, using photos, but here's my effort to do so, right after she was waxed and moved into the driveway just after sunrise.

The refinishing kit I ordered from
Dave Crawford, of GlossHaus, for application on my 528e, has arrived. Now, the task will be to see if I can improve its paint appearance, especially the possible minimization of the acid rain
damage. I'll start by doing some extensive photo documentation, over the next several days, to show the results as I
use the kit per Dave's instructions. I am hoping I can make the BMW really sparkle.
Update Oct. 10, 2009
Recent comments on MyE28.com addressed Dave Crawford's sale of his
GlossHaus products to Atlantic Euro Store in Winston-Salem, NC. Unfortunately, I still haven't used Dave's products yet, simply because other projects have had priority
for my time, but I still intend to apply this system to my 528e and report on my results.
