okay.. so im into the wg line of products.. just like the performance / results and imo the hard to make a mistake with the line..well worth $$.
2016 black metallic 4runners swirled out
flex3401 with force hybrid pads
wg UC
wg TSR
wg finishing glaze
wg dgps
wg perfekt finish paint prep (pfpp)
ps21 carnuba
did decon: wash, ironx, then nanaskin rub down.. buttery smooth paint afterwards.
after doing a test spot with finishing glaze..still have too many swirls for my preference.
went to the TSR and got the finish i was looking for..still have some swirls but eyeballing 80 % corrrection.
then went to finishing glaze polish
then cleaned with pfpp
then applied dgps
then topped with ps21 following 12 hour cure
i still have some remnants of swirls..but i really have to look for them.. eyeballing from foot away and the paint looks near flawless
i could have done UC to improve the correction but figured.. its soft paint. itll swirl even with me handwashing based on other readers postings about this model/ paint code..(thank you OP of that thread..this was very helpful with me deciding to sidestep UC immediately)..
figured i am getting the correction which makes the paint get into top 1% of paint condition for a DD..
conserving Clearcoat
better to save the clearcoat required for a UC process several years down the road...as i tend to keep my cars for well past a decade...
thoughts about this conservative correction process??
