Last year i polished my weekend car with Meg Ultimate polish. I was pretty happy with the results but i did notice a few weeks later that i hadn't got out as many swirls as i thought with the ultimate polish. I also thought it took a long time to apply.
Now that winter is behind me i want to hear what you guys might use with my arsenal on my weekend drive with fairly decent paint. I feel like the paint is kinda soft. its a scion FRS (painted by subaru) with Hot lava mettle-flake. I don't care if i fill the swirls as long as they stay sealed in for 4 months.
I have a PC 7242xp with Buff & Shine Pads
Products:
Meg - ultimate compund (will replace with HD adapt when on sale)
Meg - ultimate polish (will replace with HD polish when on sale)
mothers Stage 1 (never used it)
OP Poli-Seal (never used it)
DG 105 & 601 (i bought a gallon during winter 501 wasn't on sale)
ultimate wax (it was pretty good, didn't last thaaat long, great on rims)
collonite 915 - (really loved the dark deep look of this wax)
collonite 845 (i got this because i loved the 915)
Just wondering if you guys have some experience with these products and can recommend an ideal plan of attack for a nice looking weekend car that i could try on a few test spots?
My ideal approach is to polish some key areas above the wheels, hood and trunk where its easier to see potential swirls. clean & seal with 105/601 and finish with 915.
1) I don't want to get duped by the ultimate polish again it looks great on test spots but i need 4 months out of it. do i have better options as a finish in the mother or poli-seal?
2) Does 105 fill light swirling well? will it get rid of the oil the meg polish lays down? will it seal the meg polish in for 4 months?
Any help would be awesome.
