    is this the best you can do for a biege car?



    1. wash with mother's gold with foam gun ( I like the shampoo, lots of suds)
    2. clay with OPT lube
    3. QD wipe down
    4. meg 105 with PC speed 5 edge yellow pad and Makita 1500 rpm LC orange pad
    5. meg 205 with PC speed 5 blue edge pad
    6. rinse car /QD wipe down
    7. apply meg m16, and griot spray wax after
    8. 24hr later apply pinnicle series II wax
    I also have 3m ultrafina, which I didn't use, because no time for it. plus its my DD. maybe summer time. I already spend close to $2000 on my hobby. all these specials are killing me!!!

    I would say no. Unless it's just a bad angle I would say you can get much more gloss than what the pic shows. Here is a car as an example of the shine that can be had on these light colors. it is a little darker than yours but not much.

    Why are you doing step 4 twice?

    On that color car, Im much prefer synthetic sealants. FK1000P would look great on it and its $16.
