However, your work on this 328 is absolutely stunning.
Hats off to you. Really good job. | Man, that is a very kind thing to say. Thank you, I do appreciate it. I wanted to show the power of the Flex too in my writeup. Quote:

Sent from my iPhone using AG Online | Thank you for the kind words. They actually wanted to help with the wheels, but between stinky IronX and unsafe-to-breathe Zep Purple, I didn't allow it. That's why I smoke a cigar when doing the wheels, LOL. Quote:

I was planning on using the DG squeaky clean paint cleaner (and in fact I did use it on the hood to double check the correction I was getting to make sure it was true) but didn't have the time to do the whole car with it.

So if you use 105, then hyper polish, the hyper polish cleans all the oil 105 has to make the paint ready for OC?

Sent from my iPhone using AG Online | I don't think it works like that. Either the OP removed the oils of 105 before hyper polish or after hyper polish, but as far as I know, hyper polish will not take out oils from m105 off the car.

Sent from my iPhone using AG Online | I follow M105 up with Opt Hyper Polish. As far as I am concerned, the HP would remove any oils in M105 (which is not as bad as M205) and that is followed by an ONR wipedown. In some cases, I do a paint cleansing stage after polishing, and did so for the hood of this vehicle just to check the validity of the correction. That's the advantage to using an Optimum polish as the last step: easier surface prep for OG. Quote:

I followed it up with DG squeaky clean to ensure that there was nothing masking the true correction on the hood. It did not show anything, therefore I know the process was valid. | |
