I took the car to Dodge to have the quarter panel re-sprayed. Still not a perfect match, but at least it's black, not brown. Can only tell the difference when shining a bright light on it in a dark...

Seems like something always comes up. I've been at this for 2 months. If I could have a do-over I'd go with a Rupes or Griot's Boss DA rather than a cheap TorqX. I way underestimated the amount of...

Did you have any luck?

Nothing I ordered was able to finish off the re-sprayed panel correctly. I just ordered Griot's Perfecting Cream and their yellow pad so I'm hoping that might work better.

Yep, it's a Scat Pack. I love it.

I've got the same little dots all over the lower front bumper. I figured it was just from debris on the road and am not worried about it too much. Not enough to...

Micro marring on Dodge paint was also driving me crazy. In my case a 2016 black Challenger.

I managed to get it out of the factory paint using this combination after cutting with a Meg's MF pad...

Sadly out of stock at the moment. Hopefully what I have already will do the trick.

Thanks, Mike! Funny since I ordered a few of the Gyeon Bald towels with the Carpro suede towels this week. Hoping to get this done finally this weekend!

Next question, do I wash the suede towels...

Great info, thanks so much. I'll be trying suede towels, working in small areas and blowing the dust away. Don't have a Master Blaster but an air compressor should do the job.

Yes, I've pre-washed and gone over them front and back with a lint roller.

No, I didn't think of that, but I see the CarPro MF suede towels in the store. I think I'll try it out. As the coating is applied with a small suede cloth makes sense to wipe it before and after with...

I'm working on my final polish before applying Gyeon Mohs coating to a black Dodge Challenger.

No matter what I do, however, there's always a little dust and lint left on the paint after I wipe it...

Have to wrap up this thread for now. Car is back from the body shop and the color match is atrocious. Looks more brown than black where they sprayed when compared to the factory finish. The paint job...

Yes, label says Perfect Finish 4/6

Yup. I'm making a sign for the dash too, but you know how that goes. Hopefully they listen.

UPDATE: The car is going to the body shop on Tuesday, but I've been testing some final polish combinations.

The best result so far is using Menzerna 3500, 3 small drops (no priming), a tangerine...

Thanks. I'm in the acceptance stage now. I'll get back to it after it's repaired. Who knows what will happen at the body shop.

Well, this project is on hold for a while. Something flew off a truck and dented/chipped up my right fender and hood this afternoon. :(

Hmm... something to think about.

I will definitely try the Gyeon matte coating on the stripes.

So maybe something in this order: Finish Polish - Vinyl Tail Stripes - Gyeon Mohs - Hood Wrap -...

Thanks for the replies! Vinyl first seems logical.

I was not aware of Gyeon's matte products so that's good to know.

Is there any issue, however, with putting vinyl wrap over a coating? I will...

One or the other has to work, hopefully!

Dying to try this out, but my package didn't arrive today :(

Ah! I missed that post.

I've tried to wipe down with an ipa solution and Gyeon Prep (which I don't like at all).

That's a-lotta paint to cover indeed! I wonder if the same micro marring results would appear on a metallic. I'd imagine the clear coat is the same being a Dodge, but perhaps the metallic paint would...

I'm currently prepping my Dodge Challenger for an application of Gyeon Mohs. I also want to add the "Bumble Bee" vinyl stripe in the rear, and possibly wrap the hood in flat black vinyl (down the...

Good to get confirmation on Dodge soft black paint. I've seen it described as hard, medium and soft in various places online.

Is the M205 the same product as Ultimate Polish?

I've got Sonax PF...
