I'm all about the details. This is everything I will be doing, including the tiny things.

My car already has Klasse and some Dodo on there. Paint is perfect and does not need claying.

0- ONR
1- M105 w/ OJ pads
2- M205 w/ Grey pads
3- Pinnacle Paint Cleansing Lotion
3.5- Pinnacle QD (some the PCL is a little tough to get off)
4- Klasse AIO? I dont have the straight up Klasse sealant (yet) so is this still fine?
5- Dodo

I have six, 3.5" OJ pads, three 5" OJ pads, and three 5" gray pads.

I think I'm going to use just small OJ pads for this job since my car has alot of tight spots and curves. Good idea?
I'm going to use all three gray pads, too.

Thank you all.

I would think that some white pads with the 205 after the orange would be needed.

Ugh, I guess I ordered the wrong ones then...

White and gray pads are not the same if you are talking about LC pads.

I guess I can use the polishing pad that came with the PC and clean it twice during whole process

No, do not use the white pad that comes with the PC. Mine is still in the wrapper from 5 years ago - it's garbage.

Going from 105/orange to 205/gray will be fine - I do it all the time with great results. In fact, I prefer this over 105/orange and 205/white.


The process looks good, but I would skip the Paintwork Cleaning Lotion. It's not needed if you're already using 105/205 and you'll basically be wasting product. Save it for a few weeks or months down the road when you want to apply a fresh coat of wax.
