2012 Evo X gets SON1C Protowax 93'd

[EVOlved]

Cleaned up my car a little today and applied a new LSP. The process and products used were as follows:

Wheels and Tires:
Sonax FE on wheels
Hit with EZ Detail brush, Uber boars hair brush, and uber detail brush
Tires, wells, and tips Adam's APC
IronX on wheels
Adam's SVRT to dress the tires

Wash and decon:
Foamed with CG Citrus wash red and Adam's APC
1 bucket 2 grit guards following foam cannon
IronX
Nanoskin Fine Grade mitt with ONR as lube
Dried with Metro blaster sidekick and Uber drying towel

Polish:
None on paint saw little to no damage so decided to not abrade the surface more than needed
Pinnacle Black Label Surface Cleansing Polish on Uber blue pad on glass

LSP:
SON1C Protowax 93 applied with GG6 and Uber black pad
Pinnacle Black Label Glass Coating applied with Lake Country coating applicator

As far as the SON1C Protowax 93 goes seems like a great product. Smells great, applies easily (even in direct sun), doesn't make a mess, as far as application goes what else is there?? I wish the tub I received was bigger ;). I will be updating with beading shots, longevity results, and overall opinion as time goes by. But so far I love it!!

I forgot to take before pictures until after I cleaned 1 wheel here they are:

After wash and decon this is what made me decide not to polish on top of the fact that ironX found nearly nothing as did the nanoskin mitt:

Great work I like how that wax makes that paint pop with shine and depth lastly to me the pictures are just fine at least you documented your work

Thank you sir!! I'm just very unsure of how to take the pictures and don't ever take pictures besides for this. I will read up on it soon so I can be more confident.

Wow I did forget to mention the look of the wax!! Yes it added depth and brought out more flake. I love it!! Did I say that already?? Too bad..

Great work on the Evo! Nice write up and process you made,

I've done a similar process on a similar color vehicle, used PBL glass coating but wax was Souveran since I've not received Proto Wax!

The car went out amazing, so should be yours right now.

Thanks for sharing,

And looking forward to see updates on the wax review.

Kind Regards.

Nice work. Looking good!

Great job! I've always thought (and said a few times) that clean wheels and dressed tires bring together a car better than anything, and this is no exception. That paint popping and with everything else just brings it all together nicely. Thanks for sharing!

I knew that the 93 would make that color look that awesome!

Yes the wheels on my car make the BIGGEST difference. Thanks for the compliment.
