Thank You Sproketser

and question for you guys.

Does 151 dust a lot? I did both cars that day and there wasn't very much dust when doing the STi. Was it because the Porsche was jet black, so it showed everything?

I spent a good amount of time battling dust. Now I know why dust is so disliked around here and I couldn't agree more lol.

The Porsche had the the interior/exterior detailed. I used D151 with a LC polishing pad on my Rupusz 21

I did show him a 2 step but he said a 1 step was fine. So I went ahead and proceeded.

I did show him my car and talked to him about Opti Coating the Porsha and sounded very interested, but just got a 1 step for now.

I really like Meguiar's Synthetic Xpress Spray Wax gives for the final wipe. So both cars got the final wipe with Meguiars SXSW

The STi just got the spoiler and hood done.

I am pretty sure they are not the same (as in same category)

Meguiars Synthetic X-press Spray Wax, X-press car wax, Meguiars X-press spray liquid wax, D156

and NXT Liquid Wax seems more like Meguia'rs Ultimate Liquid Wax


Meguiars Ultimate Liquid Wax, polymer wax, best car wax, Ultimate Wax

Nice work shared my friend!

Dusting in my case is much climate dependent, meaning if the product is drying faster, few passes of the 'scrubbing' action of the pad will release the dried particles in form of dust.

To contour this issue I may add a mist or two of water / QD to the pad priming routine, soft the foam with my hand and even run the polisher over a towel to 'evenly distribute' my wetting agent in the pad.

On those days, I may also need more brushing / cleaning on the fly efforts.

Trying to fine adjust quantity of product, polisher speed, number of passes, also may help a bit.

Charging more for a particular color or vehicle has it's foundation. In fact, if you need 2 steps or more in order to finish down a paint to perfection, this needs to be charged extra. If the paint, although black, is on the hard side, it may finish well with 1-step, so no extra here.

Got my point?

Hope that helps,

Anther comment? I like the 'add-on' suggestion, keep them coming.


Kind Regards.
