Hi all, this is my first post here. I am hoping that someone can provide feedback based on what I've done to my new car.
So, i have been reading and watching how others detailed their car. I have a 2 year old car and I wanted to make it nice and shiny. Here are the products I used.
- Meguiars ultimate compound
- Meguiars ultimate polish
- NU Finish
I did a 3 stages using a griot polisher, I used each of the products above and their corresponding pads.
After the work, and some more readings, I know I screwed up and now I just wanted to know how bad I screwed up.
Here's what my thoughts are.
- since it is a fairly new car, the paint was fresh and wasn't oxidizing. I shouldn't have used the compound and the aggressive pad
I did a few passes with the compound, then I polished and waxed. I wasn't pressing on the polisher and wasn't putting a lot of pressure on the polisher either.
I now want to know how much damage I did by using the compound and the wrong bad.... The car looks fine.. Looks great actually but I just don't know enough. Hoping to hear from any experienced detailers. Thank you all in advanced.
