I should have taken better pictures of it before my wife drove it out of the shop, did not ask what brand of ceramic it was.
It’s been raining all day  but at least the water beads up and is nice and shinny.

I bought a used x5 too, mine is black saphire metallic.
The clear coat was a horror show when I got it. Scratches everywhere. The rear hatch door was especially bad. There were also a few quarter sized circle shaped areas where the paint looked to have been ground into by a piece of sand paper. I thought painting the entire car was the only way….
Before going for a new paint job I wanted to try a paint correction, I figured for $200 it's worth it. The car literally looked brand new afterwards. Best money I've spent on the car since I've gotten it.
I'm going to invest in a decent polisher. They are worth their weight in gold.
