Car Detailing for BMW i4

Detailing your BMW i4

The i4 is a quiet, quick commuter that spends most nights plugged in under a condo. The closed gloss-black nose scratches more easily than a regular grille, so it gets foam and a soft mitt, and the frameless doors need their seals cleaned so the glass stops streaking. Inside, the hatch means the cargo carpet sees slush, so we extract it rather than vacuum it, and the curved display gets a screen-safe cleaner.

What we watch for on a i4

• There is no radiator grille to clean, but the closed kidney panel is gloss black plastic that scratches if scrubbed; we use foam and a soft mitt
• The hatch opens the whole rear glass, so the cargo carpet gets wet and salty in winter; an extraction keeps it from smelling musty
• Frameless doors leave a grime line along the top seal that streaks the glass after rain; we clean the seal channel on every detail
• M50 cars have 20-inch wheels with heavy brake dust; the regenerative braking helps, but the barrels still need an iron remover
• The charge port door on the rear fender collects winter grit; we clean it with a brush and a damp cloth rather than spraying water near the connector

Electric vehicles: quiet, glassy and light on the engine bay

EVs have big glass roofs, minimal controls on screens, vegan leather and no engine bay to degrease. The work is mostly about glass clarity, screen-safe cleaning, paint protection and careful wheel and charge-port care.
