    P.S. You answered a question of mine indirectly about wheels. I have a pilot coming in this weekend for a major overhaul and was curious what to use on wheels to shine them up

    Thanks for that!
    If they need a little more, use M100 or 105 on a mf first and then go over a 2nd time with M205. I've also topped that with Essence too (I did that to the mirrors). Many good compounds and polishes will work great on chrome. Some chrome is softer than others, so the usual caveat about trying it first in an inconspicuous location of course applies.

    Do you think she might let you put a sticker on the rear quarter window? Maybe something like, "This beauty maintained by my main man at Flawless Reflections Auto Detailing."

    Great job my friend, the vehicle looks sick with all that gloss. Now you have us all thinking about 3 coats. Fantastic job sir.

    Haha..I love it! I'll tell you the truth, when her car is dirty, her friends ask "Are you and Rich having a fight?" I LOL, her poor car tends to get washed less than mine..hmmm.

    Cool! And, thanks! Anyone who knows me knows that I always tend to think (and act) outside the box. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.

    This one made me say DAYUM to an empty house.

    Richy,

    How long did you wait after Essence to cure before applying your first coat of Opti-Gloss?
    Time between Opti-Gloss coats?
    Anything special you did between coats?
    How long after you apply Opti-Gloss can you apply a 2nd coat?


    Great work !!
