How to clean/keep clean BSM

[deeldoo]

I have a BSM M4 and this thing is the biggest pain in the ass to keep clean, the moment any water gets on it, looks like i went through a mudpile.

Not to mention it looks horrid with dust and dirt on it, I am truly regretting getting this damn color.

Any solution? Would ceramic coating it even help?

I use Kenotek (on my PPF) after a wash to keep it looking clean longer than just a wash.

BSM = Clean= does not exist..... just say'n

I have Black Azurite got it ceramic coated and it was dirty 3-5 days later ... Impossible to keep clean unless you keep it indoors.

Might throw the whole car out

This is my first black car and it hasn't been easy.
Ceramic coating definitely helps speeding up weekly washing and drying process.
If there's a light coat of fine dust, I use the California duster lightly to remove the fine dust. I know there's a big controversy on using this duster. In my experience using this for the last 10 years, using it very carefully, gliding it over the surface and not applying any pressure, it hasn't caused any scratches, marring, webbing etc on the paint.

The cool thing about this stealth wrap is even though it gives it a matte look, the metallic will still come through

Holy fuck that is so sexy, i am looking for the matte look with the metallic undertones.

Did you get it done completely? Do you have pics? How much did it run you?

Doing the whole car in stealth besides the trim around the doors, grill in the front, and cf roof will all be gloss wrap. Gonna wrap the side mirrors in cf wrap. Wasnt a big fan of cf wrap until I actual saw it in person. Looks like the real deal.
So the whole car wrapped plus ceramic coating the whole car, wheels , calipers and glass $5500. Won't have to wax again and if there and dust all I need to do is run water over it lol. It will bead right off.
All the pics I have but I will show you when the car is complete

You are telling me that is BSM?

The Colour looks completely different in a really good way.

Here's some Before pics . Matte will change it of course. Only reason I bought another black car is because I new I was doing the Matte look. Black is the best liking when clean but damn what a pain in the ass. You can do the wrap and it doesn't need to be stealth. It could be clear and you won't lose the BSM color

Because I am a glutton for punishment, we have two BSM's. The M4 doesn't seem so bad anymore after cleaning the wife's X5. FML.
