Bags....Very Very Impressive....Paint looks like a mirror...you have enough protection on there to last you into fall...LOL...you did a bang up job...Sparkie taught you well....Now do not go crazy with AW..once a month is good...use Fast Clean and Shine in between....you will have better results...AW will layer and to much can mute paint..so use FC&S after a weekly wash....AW monthly...

The 101 is the magic stuff.. ..it gets the paint super clean and lays down the wet look..and remove lite mariing....105 adds to it and locks it in....

Using the 901 shampoo is best..it adds some polymers to the finish also...it was made to work with the Dg products..like zaino does...

you did a A+ job....very nice....

I was wondering when you were gonna chime in. You and Sparkie both gave me some good advice and tips. I agree 101 is the big key to it all. I think on my wifes truck I am goning to work the 101 in like a polish. I even thought about adding a little 111 to the pad. Any clue as to when your testing will be finished? I know you were working on some special mixes. I saw someone on another site who put a small dab of 111 on their pad while using the Pink buffing gel. While I am pleased with the results, I really want to cut my time down. I guess the OPT came out good but I really was never sure when the polish was broken down. With the DP FFP it was easy because it started to dust when it was done. I think we all want to be able to do the job in 4-5 hours like the pros. Then again that's why they are pros. Thanks again for the help.

Bags..I have been playing with menzerna in the 101...2 drops 101 and 2 106FF on a pad..blue finish pad...AWESOME combo...

I polished the panel with Intensive Polish 3.0...with a green pad..CSS..and then 101 with 106FF and the finish was as wet as olive oil...I am hoping in the next week or so to get to my truck and a few cars I do and try it out...I am waiting for some stuff to come from Europe now...some menzerna polishes ...want to try the PO85RE5 also in the combo....I have been buying the 101 in 32 oz bottles now...wish AG sold that size...

101 and 105 is a killer combo...wettest finish I have seen for a sealant..and it lasts..mine is still going since Sept...

yea you are doing some good work. Is the IP a friendly polish or is there a learning curve? Do you only use the "M" polishes? Can I hijack my own thread?lol A local car store had the 101 on sale I picked up another 2 bottles. I really like what it does on glass and chrome.

Bags..the IP sold here is Po91L I believe...not the same as the one for cerami clear..PO85RD3.01 .no real learning curve ..they work...but the IP can dust ...but worth it ....when it is dry out I do not get much dusting...when it very humid it dusts some....not real bad....
