Car: 2016 Audi S7
Color: Black
I will try to give an overview of what steps I have taken but I think I might need to change up the product choice or pad or both but not 100% sure either way hence why I am here.
Machines available:
Torq Long throw 15mm DA
Torq FX10 DA
Torq Rotary
Have the following pads:
Hex Logic white, yellow, orange, black, blue, and red x 4 in 6.5 inch & 5.5 inch
3 inch yellow, red, orange Griots pads
Meg. DA microfiber discs 5 inch x 10
6 inch microfiber fast finishing pads x 30
Microfiber towels:
Chemical guys premium towels separated by function (by color (glass, interior, wheels, and exterior) x 80 (basically 20 each)
Compounds/Polish/Sealant I currently have:
3d One Polish/Cutting
3D Poxy Paint Sealant
Chemical Guys All-In-One
Chemical Guys: V7 Hybrid Optical Gloss
Chemical Guys: Jet Seal
Chemical Guys: Polish & Compound kit (includes V38, 36, 34, 32)
Glossworks Glaze
Wet Mirror Gloss Glaze
Menzerna: 400, 1000, 2500, 3500
Jescar: Power Lock Sealant
On Order:
Meg. 2, 7 and 9
Looking for some guidance as I have ceramic coat on the way and want to get things looking sharp before applying ceramic.
For the microfiber clothes I use Chemical guys cleaner only.
For the microfiber pads I use a compressor as I go with a brush to fluff the brushes.
For the pads use Chemical guys pad cleaner and soak in a separate bucket then brush and soak in another bucket & air dry.
I wash the microfiber separate of each other as well.
Thus far I have used the Menzera stuff but need guidance from the pros!
Sorry for the long post but trying to lay out what I have at my disposal in terms of materials to make the magic happen.
I have been doing section by section with approximately 3 passes. I go back & forth (up & down) then from left to right then a final pass up & down when working the materials.
