You won't need Fuzion, BlackICE, Souveran etc right off that bat. You can only use one, what I suggest is spreading that money around and getting quality towels, pads, sealants etc, but that's just me.

Also, CG Celeste isn't that awesome, I'd choose and prefer CG 50/50 anyday.

I agree Celeste was a waste.....I'm confused about the lc hybrid pads vs ccs ...couldn't find nthn on the forum that compares the two

Why not a kit from Blackfire, Pinnacle, Griot's Garage etc. with all that stuff in it?
What kind of car do you have?

Exciting!

TriX is a combination of TarX and IronX.

Bmw = hard paint - so you have the right compounds.

Id suggest to get the best products from each brand, rather than getting stuck with good and bad products included in a kit.

Also, you can opt for Microfiber pads from meguiars or buff n shine. Both are good. MF pads will maximise the cutting ability on a griots DA. You can finish off with a foam pad after the compounding.


Hope this helps.

Yes. You will need to follow up with a finishing polish i think SF4500. Their numbering is confusing. Afaik, the finishing polish i know is PO85RD. Now either Sf4000 or 4500 matches that.:D
