OK, after 3 years I'm finally prepping for a paint-correction-weekend.
So my primary interest is preservation of clearcoat. I want to conserve as much of it as possible (does anyone by chance know how thick factory GTR paint is?).
I'm not concerned with deep defect removal, I just want to "clean up the paint", remove some minor marring/swirls, and put a decent gloss on the car before applying my coating (Gtechniq CSL+EVO).
The factory self healing clearcoat is super soft, and marrs very easily.
Would the Rupes UHS system work? I'm concerned that it might be too agressive and remove too much clear coat. I'm debating between either using the UHS fluid+pads, OR the Rupes Yellow pads + Sonax Nano polish, and follow up with Rupes White + Menzerna SF4000.
thanks in advance!
