Some afters before I get to the products...









Note the dye over the stain on front passanger, this was going straight to touch up after delivery so I always try to prime bad spots for the interior guys

Re: IMAGE Auto Detail- Thanks Meghan

Now to the fun stuff,car was washed and preped in the usual way, wash/clay/wash yadda yadda yadda

HF on wheels, purple on wells, tires engine, jambs treated for wash, nose and rockers treated

The car was a bit beyond the Final polish so I went over it with M83 with a yellow sonus pad at about 1500-1800 RPM with a makita

Normally I would have went to a white or green pad with M82 or 80 with the rotary, but since I had free stuff I chose a green ccs pad, with the Menzena FP, ran at 1500, very workable low to no dust, lasted a long time and easy to remove residue, no caking or gumming up(which I would have gotten with 82) very nice product, really nothing I did not like about it.

Next where I would normally use OPT poliseal or Megs machine glaze(since it is red) I used the Menzerna finishing glaze with a white CCS pad with the flex, again very workable and easy to remove, added noticable wetness and clarity removed with a few mists of the Top Inspection, also hit all the jambs at this point, Vey nice for that too. A+

To finish I used the sealer wax instead of M26 with the flex and a softbuff finishing pad, not as impressed with it although I am sure it was my application. It was a bear to remove with hazing and without, ended up just misting each panel with Top Inspection to remove, Looked good though I believe the 26 is easier to use and would have looked the same if not better. I am sure it has longer protection though. B-

Here are a few paint condition shots and then I will post the afters.

Re: IMAGE Auto Detail- Thanks Meghan

beautiful outside shots ... a clear difference from the start. The swirling on that trunk was incredible.
