Two words I love to here Scott say...
"Jeweled" and "Amped".
I too use the same words and the same processes. Scott is the master at jewelling. He's got the process down pat.

I say "amped" .... gosh I am getting rather predictable.

XMT 3, then XMT 1, and then a LSP is jewling?

When this forum started up and I first heard Kllr talk about "jewelling" I tried it out. I have to say it makes quite a remarkable difference in the finish even on my silverstone car. The car is definitely wetter and more reflective after the jewelling process. So, I guess what I'm saying is . . .

THANKS SCOTT!!!

It could be ... lets take the LSP out of the equation. When you were done polishing with XMT 3 did you need to use XMT 1 ?? If the finish was correct and you just wanted to "amp" or "jewel" it to the next level then yes it is. Usually jeweling is the last step (almost unneccessary) where you use a finishing pad, finishing polish, and high speed to really move the finish to the next level.

Ah, gotcha. So would a glaze, such as XMT glaze act as the jewleing part after using XMT 3 and 1 but before LSP.
