Pls explain to all here how you perform "correct any imperfections???" This is what we need to hear? A simple polish, clean, clean, clean and that's it?.
I paid someone to do it for me.....because I don't know how and wasn't going to learn on my Shelby. I'm all for learning and will still probably do so eventually. I've been talking to my detailer and now the company he works for to have a class or classes sort of like some well known supplier of detail products does every year in Florida. Once I get some hands on I'll practice on my DD.
Make sure to IPA the hell out of the paint before applying UK if you use that menzerna polish. Menz polishes have a lot of mineral oil. :cheers:
Thanx. Picked up some Car Pro Eraser from Corey at Sky's the Limit. www.carpro-US.com He sells all CQuartz items. The Eraser is said to be better than IPA ( not the beer!!) :cheers:
Wash, clay, menzerna fg400 (it is now relabeled 400 extreme compound I think), ipa wipe down, apply coating the beauty of fg400 is it has dimining technology so it gets out imperfections and breaks down to give a mirror finish. It's my go to one step. Since your car has been wetsanded and you have it looking stunning you may not need a paint correction. Just make sure the paint is free from any waxes or sealants before applying the coating. Wash with dawn, clay, ipa wipe down 2-3 times or buy a product made to strip wax off that is finish safe. If you can't get it off, use a very mild polish like menzerna 3000 then use ipa. Menzerna is a tad oily compared to some other polishes, but this makes it much less likely to dust all over everything and it also gives you plenty of work time to perfect your finish.
Dude, what? No, just no. FG400/Heavy Cut Compound has to be followed up with something like SF3500 or 3800 unless you're a huge fan of looking at awful holograms in your paint. You don't use a compound as a final stage polish, and you certainly don't recommend others follow suit.
