    McKees 37 Paint Coating Project

    Here is a recent car coating project. For this car I typically color correct as needed and seal every 6 months. This time I coated the car. To tackle this job I washed the car with Wolfgang auto bath. The soap worked well out of a pressure washer Canon. It sticks well and washes off easier than my previous soap. I then clayed the car using using medium synthetic clay from Nanoskin. Followed by compounding and polishing with Wolfgang medium cut and polish(Flex 4301, LC Pads). Finally the car was decontaminated with McKees N914. We were very impressed with the end results. It has not rained yet so hopefully this coating will last. I just switched to Mckees products and the application seemed to work well in comparison to other coating I have used. The car did require more product than advertised. I think I will get 2 cars out of the 4 oz bottle. Overall the car is much deeper and richer than when it was sealed.

    Looks sweet, Jon! You'll find it looks better between washes too.

    I love your wheels too.

    With the pic I reposted, I clicked on the thumbnail to make it bigger, then right clicked on it and clicked on "COPY IMAGE ADDRESS" Then I manually wrote the tags [img - /img] (I didn't complete the tags so you can see what I did) and copied the image address between them.


    I don't know how to explain it without showing you, maybe someone else can chime in.
