Today I did a one step polish on a Silverado 1500, the paint was severe with brake dust spots.

Wash with ONR

Cleaned the wheels and tires with Meguiars APC

Decontaminate with IronX

Followed that up with a clay bar using Chemical Guys Clay Luber.

Then polished using Menzerna 3000 on the darker white Hexlogic pad.

Followed that up with Menzerna PowerLock Sealant.

While the sealant was curing for 20 minutes, I did the trim (mirrors, bumper plastic, mud flaps, and tailgate handle) with Solution Finish.

Applied tire shine using Meguiars Endurance tire gel.

Conclusion: I absolutely love Solution Finish, best trim restoration I've ever used. Just clean the trim, apply let sit for 2 minutes and wipe off excess.

First time I've actually used Menzerna 3000 for a 1-step polish, I usually use HDSPEED, but I was feeling optimistic. I usually follow up with the 3000 after I use 400. The clarity this polish produces is honestly crazy IMHO.

IronX is a subjective topic. Some people hate it, some people love it. I happen to love it. It made clay barring a breeze, I have been using it for about 3 weeks now.

Menzerna PowerLock, amazing. I continue to love this product as it actually protects the paint, and you can tell as you wash it the weeks after. Also leaves the paint silky smooth.

Hey thanks guys! He comes to me twice a year for decontamination and every time it's a treat. Glad I discovered IronX. Literally probably knocked an hour off my time.
