Larry, a detail pro, originally from AMMOnyc, did a “Drive Clean” episode on the BMW M3 Frozen matte paint on the Drive Network, a fast growing YouTube automotive channel. The host visited BMW’s North American Headquarters in New Jersey. He got a chance to interview Walter Malec, BMW’s paint and body repair guru.
Matte finish paints, called the Frozen Paint in BMW speak, is absolutely breath taking up close, but is a nightmare to maintain. Watch a break down of the matte finish paint layers in details…. for instance the clear coat layer which absorbs light instead of reflecting it. Not to mention a few do’s and don’t in the even of visible scratches. No polishing, waxing, and the careful touch up of the matte paint, to mention a few. Make sure not to miss a washing slash detailing session of a beautiful frozen metallic blue E92 BMW M3. Enjoy!
