This was some of the worst black paint I have seen that remained in the realm of fixability. Most of this BMW E34 Touring retained its OEM soft black paint, meaning it easily scratches, but is also fairly easy to correct. The front end of the car was repainted and done poorly, it would require sanding to resolve but was to inconsistent and thin to do so. Regardless I don't think it has a huge impact on the overall result of the car. This was a lot of fun. Finishing it off in a one year ceramic coating from Shine Supply. I think this E34 came a long way in the two videos we put up. On to the streets now. Much love!

Is anyone else far too sloppy to own a black car? My 20 minute direct sunlight washes with an old mitt are too frequent 😭
Oh man, I need to detail my BMW i3s soooo bad. My ride is now 3 years old, and since I drive around 4000 km a month and mostly on highways, you can tell that thereza lot of bruises to the paint…
But hey, nice video my man! Got to get myself some Chromatic merch for my car! 💯🔝🍀👍🏼🤗
My last car was a black e46. And it was the last black car i’ll ever own…
My e38 is black and it's both a pain and a joy. Black paint is sensitive but it rewards hard work. Once a again flawless work, flawless video and car. Thank you for this content my man!
Yes. And I just bought one yesterday, with fresh paint and fresh polish. I'm ready to fck it up lmao
Your shop dog is very quickly going to start steeling the show haha! Fantastic and flawless as usual. I'd be way too scared to own a black car!
Haha I’m okay with that! And thank you bro! Hope you’re having a blessed weekend 🖤🤝
Perfect timing. My saturday night poo just got 20mins longer.
literally me bro 💀💀
😂
Hahaha I owanna know how long he was already there
Nah this is worse than my comment about floor fries
I own a “daily driver not garage kept” black 2015 Yukon Denali XL 4x4…….From the USA 🇺🇸 in Florida….It is work to keep it up and clean. But using the proper methods of washing, drying, and
protecting the paint with good quality products, it still looks excellent inside and out even with 166,000 plus miles….Plus the detailing of it and my other vehicles is my therapy 🙏🙏🙏🙏
As always, excellent video sir👍🙌….Also, the new 4-legged addition to the videos is quickly becoming a star ⭐️!!…..Lol….Stay safe and be Blessed 🙏
That’s awesome man! To enjoy taking care of I think is what will make most vehicles outshine others. Passion goes a long way. I appreciate you 🤝
It’s not a great weekend without a Chromatic upload💪🏼🤙🏼🔥🤘🏼
If you say so my man! Thanks for watching!
Probably my favorite Chromatic Production to date. Loved every aspect!
I really do enjoy this one as well. Thank you man!
Just my relaxing corner, work of art of a professional, the cars which are close to my heart, the right music, thank you man
Thank you man! Much love
How do I like this video a million times?
Hahaha I appreciate you dude!🙂🖤
I love these videos so much, the production is unmatched! I think one of the reasons I love them so much is because the detailing steps involved are exactly what I would do, not overcomplicated but never cutting corners. Well done mate!
Thank you so much Adam! I really do look at detailing in a very non pretentious way, it’s just a lot of fun for me to be able to enjoy the cars. I hope that translates through the videos 🖤
Nothing like working on old cars, specially single stage
I agree man! A lot more fun to work on Forsure 🖤
Waiting all day for this was totally worth it. For 30-year paint to clean up that nice even with one of the worst colors to show every imperfection...flawless
Yeah man I was pleased! Especially being non metallic, coulda been a nightmare!
Precision and passion! i like your work. I have a black 520 i with that front end, when it's clean it's gorgeous but it only lasts a short time 🤣🤣🤣 . Hello from Italy
Haha gotta keep it clean more often I guess! Thanks for the support my friend! Much love from Canada 🖤
Doggy want’s to polish this BMW 😅🥰
Respect for all the work you have done 💪🏽🫡
Haha thank you bro! Hope you’re feeling real good 🙏
@@ChromaticGarage Can I ask a one question?
I live in Russia and I want to buy your merch is it possible to do this?😬
Just finished the Matt’s video on his E36, now on to this. I should be asleep but who need that?
Also, more dog content please.
Haha heck yeah. Happy to be watched in the same line up as Matt. I look up to him an unbelievable amount
Been waiting for this all week!
I hope it didn’t disappoint!🤝
Phenomenal job brother. I was waiting for this one to drop
Thank you Jeff! Glad you enjoyed ☺️
Videos are getting even better still! I love em
Thank you brotha! I really enjoyed making this one :)
Watching your videos really helps me relax from all the stress, can’t wait until the Chromatic stuff arrives here in Germany. Great stuff as always man
Thank you so much for the support brotha!🖤🖤🖤
@@ChromaticGarage 🙏🙏
Awesome video production as usual and great music choice!
Thank you Ryan! Hope you’re having a good weekend🖤
This is what I waited for. Im speachless. The fun thing was it was like backwards against what everybody use to do, put all effort on a fast job on the paint to show progress. This you showed the car love to all things before the big transformation.
Thank you bro! I am glad you enjoyed it, I had a lot of fun doing it haha
A lovely new friend of the garage🐶
Haha I like her, thank you!
Very amazing restoration, Now is the second life for this BMW
Thanks man! I’d like to think so too 🙏
Very satisfying! Awesome job as usual. Keep up the good work.
Thank you Chris!
Great job, great music as well. Man that black paint came right back to life, those before and after shots show it was well worth the effort. I’d love one of those wagons, gotta be that Imola Red.
Heck yeah, thank you for watching friend! Imola red is fantastic, so classic
What a fantastic result! One big black mirror, looks soo good!
Haha heck yeah, thanks for watching man!
Skills and patience leed to stunning results!! Massive job, mate 💪👍
Thank you man! Hope you’re having a great weekend 🖤
@@ChromaticGarage Yes, wish you too a nice weekend.
Super fresh!!! Great job!!
Thank you bro!
Perfect 👌...and the dog, a new friend 🐕🦺👍.
Good job and video!.
Thank you friend!🤝🖤
The Pup wanted to play!
That came out nice!
Haha thank you friend!
I laughed when she stole the tape. Then she brought him the green toy.
Bet she is good at hide and seek. Smart dog!
Still one of the best in the biz. Great transformation bru.
Thank you brotha! Hope all is well with you!
@@ChromaticGarage just grinding homie.
This is satisfaction level 1000 💆🏻♂️ great work!
Thanks friend!🖤🖤
@@ChromaticGarage no thank you sir!!
Incredible transformation!
Thank you Jim!🤝🙏
1:38 legitimately laughed out loud
Simply beautiful! ❤
Been wanting to see this so badly😂
Haha I hope it delivered bro!
Great work dude👏 the period correct Hartge wheels, really suit the E34!
Thanks man! I agree, really nice look in this staggered orientation
Mirror finish! Love it
Thank you brotha!!🤝
Great video! That is a mega transformation! 😎👍
Thank you! Was a lot of fun Forsure 🙂
Love the way you edit
Thank you bro!
Nice Hartge wheels, got ones on my Alpine White E34 too with full Hartge bodykit
Very cool man! Never seen one with the full kit!
You got the best shop helper ever 🤣
Haha who said helper, I see zero help 😭
Dot is getting big man! 🥰 reaally heavy on the video skills btw 👀
Haha she sure is Merlin! Thank you bro 🥺🖤
now that is one mint looking e34 touring. I am amazed that the paint turned out that good. It looked like it had been cleaned with steel wool
Haha it really did, I understand all washes mess up paint but I do wonder how things get that bad. Even over X amount of years
Love your videos! Quality is awesome as always! I was wondering what watch you were wearing? Thanks!
Thank you man! It’s a Seiko Jewel Fish. 2001 Japan release 🙂
So clean
I can say, Really good taste for music 👌🏾
c`mon man i thought we agreed on not doing the blurry scene thing! :) by the way awesome job.
It was go watch aunt man or watch my guy chromatic! Yeah you guessed it im at the theater watching chromatic 😉
Hahaha perfect choice brotha! Much love
Huge improvement and it looked lovely with the ceramic coating on it. I agree, that paint had some of the worst scratches I've ever seen.
Thank you Michael! Crazy honestly! I think all the really bad ones on the hood were from scraping old sap off. A very Canadian problem
カメラアングルが素晴らしい😊✨
物凄く手の込んだアングルで
しかも見やすいです❇
the camera angle is very nice👍
fromJapan🙌
Thank you so much! The best place in the world🙏. Much love from Canada
Thought my internet was lagging when the video first started. Dog is a paid actor. E34 Touring is prob the best looking touring out there. Black cars are the most satisfying to paint correct. Great work again man! But how long is that tape on the outside of the shop going to stay up there? LOL
Thank you man! Haha spring time fosho. Winter crept up real quick
Looks amazing! Great work. One question: why does it appear to have red side markers in the front bumper?
Thank you Kevin! Not a clue, not my car not my concern 😭
wow this really makes me want to polish up my E36, its the same colour (with lots of scratches as well haha).
I think that’s a great idea bro. Get to it 😳🤝
Black when clean is amazing, honestly hard to beat clean black paint. Even with 2 buckets/ dirt guards and always keeping my towels and mitts washed and cleaned, somehow swirls always slowly come back lol. It’s a mission
man your channel really makes me wanna cop an e34 touring and an e39 touring
How much longer does it take to complete the detail with having to set up the shots and find the right angles and everything you do to get the aesthetic you have in each video
Honestly man, if you think it’s a very long time, triple what you think. It is draaaaaaining😭
great dog!
Thanks frieeeend!
spotless bro, i wanna do this to my car so bad but im afraid of messing up the paint
Can I ask how long the compounding and polishing stage took on this vehicle? Amazing work as usual
I’m not even sure, with filming and everything it’s not really calculable. If I was doing this as a business the cut would probably take 6-8 hours
just WOW!
THANK YOU :)
as always you do a perfect job!
how do you think if i repaint some body parts like bumper, hood, trunk and etc.. but i'll wont repaint the whole body because is original paint from factory, but it's 30+ y.o. will it possible to get the matching after polishing?
or should i do repaint body too? it's interesting, i'll try easer way first :)
(btw its Subaru Black Mica Pearl)
Thank you! I think if possible the best thing to do is repaint the whole car. I’m not a person that puts a value on original paint unfortunately. However I think a highly skilled painter should be able to get it close enough. But then again it depends who’s eyes are looking at it haha
@Chromatic Garage thank you for that answer brother, i really appreciate it! got you :)
Amei a participação do 🐕
God Bless your family 🙏🇧🇷
Thank you my friend!!
Do you have a playlist of your Songs, you use while detailing
I don’t! I need to do it. Been procrastinating big time
@@ChromaticGarage if you do so, would you put it on public i love your Videos with those Songs and camera Quality just satisfying perfection 💪🏼
La passion avant tout.
music links please! loved this video 🎉
Thank you John!🖤🖤
Stunning.
What breed of dog is that?
Thank you! Long haired miniature dachshund 📏
Hot diggity dog. I love black cars
New hair = New life 😉🤙🏻
Nice.
Thank you🔊
😍
🦎🖤
Hehe, yeah, working on my cars has become way more complicated for me as well since i got my new puppy...
Literally can´t leave anything on the ground anymore. And she´s always very kean on "helping me out" when i´m laying under the car, usualy licking my face is her preferred work. 😅
Why do you think you have such an affinity for BMWs?
I don't think I have an actual answer for that. Just very drawn to the lines of these cars from all eras except 2000-2015 haha
Hey brother I would love to support the channel with the merchandise - but I find the selection very youthful and doesn’t really cut it for an older/mature man
Perhaps some minimal branding or designs for us older folk
Imagine a simple tee with that logo top left pec section…
I understand the audience and taste but really need to diversify to the group with the money power to spend
My 2 cents - keep up with the great work
I think this is a great suggestion and definitely something I overlooked. Thank you for bringing this up and thanks for supporting the channel. Taking notes 🙏
Great channel and wonderful work. Lighting on this video is awful
Thanks Joel! I love the lighting in this🖤
@ChromaticGarage the rest of us need a seeing eye dog
I always avoid black cars 😅 but I own a 2004 X5 in Saphirschwarz. I wrapped it in ppf because the paint is like cottonwool, touch it and it'll get imperfections 🤷♂️
Haha yuuuup. A nightmare. I’m sure it looks great under the PPF though! I really need to learn how to put that sticky stuff down
🎉1st
You did that man 🥺🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝
First!!!
Second actually, but the effort is apparent
@@ChromaticGarage nope, check on newest button and I am listed as the last one from the bottom up so I was ahead from Granular Auto Spa by possibly a second 😄😄
I respect the hustle.
And I appreciate you bro!
Love your dog 😍
It's a retro movie 🎥. Well done
