True true! You do still have to bag them off though and more time is required for cleaning and removing lint.

Re: E46 M3 in for paint correction
Man that after Essence shot is cool - it seems to actually show that the fillers really do help to bring out the shine w/o any hazing or holograms (basically what the product description implies).
The pre Essence shot is nice - but I find the post shot to really show a much cleaner starburst and appears to provide extra paint depth!!!
Excellent work!!

Yep, it really richens the paint. The after compound shot still had some light marring, which Essence should have easily refined too, not necessary just filled. I'm going to try and redo the above pics this weekend on another car, but I'll fully refine the paint before Essence this time and see if it can be captured in pics.

Great work Chad. Awesome results for a 1+ step, Essence continues to look very promising.
What was your process with Essence to keep it less than a true two step and still breakdown the abrasives?

Perhaps I should have worded it differently. The vehicle was only in for a 1-step and traditional wax/sealant. Since this is a very good client I basically ended up doing a 2-step with the intention of Essence being my LSP. I believe this is the 7th or 8th car I've done for this client and he has 2 more on the books. Don't mind the extra work for owners like this.

You really brought this car back to life! I'm surprised the paint was so badly stained.
