    Advice for Blazing Copper Ford Edge

    G'day All,

    Back in Oz I used Menzerna Polishes and Megs NXT & OCW on my previous cars.

    I now need to buy new stock to maintain my new Edge, and was after some advice on what you guys recommend for a Metallic Orange(see Picture attached).

    I was thinking of using Menzerna for my polishes again, although am open to advice on what works well on Ford paint. My main query I guess is what wax will give the best result for the color of my vehicle, and do I need to do anything different living in a climate that is prone to snowfall(vehicle will be garaged, but working shift work it may be out overnight occasionally).

    I'm also planning on purchasing the Flex RO after reading you guys rate it higher than the PC. I also was thinking of getting some Edge 2000 pads(I'm assuming they work with it)

    And finally, what do you guys recommend for chrome & rubber??

    Thanks in advance, Nobby

    Get the Flex kit with Menzerna polishes (youll even find the ceramiclear work nicely on Ford paint).

    Chrome -- Chrome Polish and Wool Bob on Drill (look under detailing tools)

    rubber -- Poorboys Trim Restorer

    I would use a sealant to make the metal flake pop and the orange to be crisp!
