thanks, JohhnyO! Just read your thread. Very cool MG.
So in your pic, the test patches are to the right and look redder/less white? That's Griot's wax and the Meguiar's 20?
EDIT: I now see they...
Yes, absolutely! I have a really good one of the other side before and can replicate the location for a good after shot this weekend.
gotcha, thanks 2Black1s! I'll do a test patch with some protectants too. I definitely have a good 303 product I use on the vinyl top.
I'll also do another round or two of Meguair's 7 and try...

I’d say this is a good ad for the Mike Phillips Meguiar’s #7 rubdown technique!
Thanks for all the responses everyone. Much appreciated.
Yeah I absolutely hear what you’re saying, 2black1s. I’ve know this car has needed body and paint since I bought it in 2001 so have been...
I did two full rubdowns, three on the driver side, which wasn’t super wet during wipe off until the third.
Perhaps I’ll do a few more? Seems to look really good upon wipe off.
Thanks, much appreciated!
Yeah, that makes sense. I was thinking of trying Meguiar’s 21 Synthetic Sealant of their Yellow Wax
by hand or trying once more with Blackfire One Step and DA. I wonder...
Hey guys!
Just did a test panel with the DA, orange griot pad, and Blackfire One Step. Six section passes.
It's doesn't look THAT much different than the paint did after Meguiar's 7 rubdown. I'm...
Sounds good re: orange pads. Will keep everyone updated on the Blackfire One Step test spot, etc.
thanks again!

Okay awesome, thanks Mike and Tom! Yup, makes perfect sense.
Yeah, that video on the Meguair's #7 rubdown is great.
I'm very impressed by the #7. I need to get the car out in the sunlight, but...
Gotcha, thanks Tom! Oddly enough the passenger side of the car feels a little wetter than the driver side. Maybe I’ll add more Meguiar’s to the driver side.
I wonder if it has anything to to with...

The paint looks amazing after the Meguiar’s #7 rubdown.
Wonder if it will stay this nice or revert in a few days as the oils dry or dissipate?
I suppose I should wait a few days and take it...
it does! Much appreciated, Mike! About to comet wash the rest of the car.
Trunk lid looks good after toweling off the #7!

great video, watched it last night and applied some #7 to the trunk lid of the Charger!
Thanks,
Ted
Thanks, Mike! Will do the Comet wash before the #7 rubdown and keep the thread updated.
Have a good weekend!
Ted
Big thanks again to Mike for taking the time to walk me through this.
Meguiar's #7, 3D One, and wool pads arrive on Wednesday, but need to clean and prep the Charger before the Meguiar's #7...
Absolutely! this community has been extremely helpful and i just joined!
Yes, will keep everyone updated with pics. Should be interesting!
likewise! Really appreciate you taking the time! Excited to get back into the process now that I have some good guidance.
Sorry, it’s a 6 inch plate
Will do now, thank you!
