Re: 2015 Dodge Challenger Scat Pack - Black- *Soft Paint*
Nice car. Did you use the blue first? then the orange? Or is that a typo

Thanks fellas!
I used the blue (cutting) pads first and then the orange (polishing) pads after. Then I used the crimson pads for the sealant.
I'm still blown away with how good the car looks.. We took her to run errands tonight and I kept looking back. I was worried about swirls being that the clear is so soft but I stripped the polish on my test spot and there was none.

Got it. Nice job. I always look back at my car. It's a prerequisite for autogeeker's :-)

Wait you used 3500 for the entire car all the steps ?
That’s a finishing polish you should have used some sort of compound to start it would have cut many passes off your process. Passes = time.
Looks great though

I used the 3500 for the first two steps (blue and tangerine pads) and the Wolfgang sealant for the third and final step. The challenger has extremely soft paint and the blue pad with the 3500 got every swirl and scratch out minus the deep ones.
I was trying to use the least aggressive products to get the job done considering my paint is so soft. Granted I'm a total beginner at this stuff and im sure there may have been a more optimal way.
