Shopping list so far:

1. 3M Ultrafina. It's going to replace the PO106FF.

2. 3M Blue Finishing foam.

3. Megs solo black finishing foam.

4. Menzerna PO85RD. For when I have the time to do an extra step after the Ultrafina.

5. Megs M105. I had to use three applications of Edge black wool and Menzerna Power Gloss on the above referenced Suburban to get it corrected. 8 hours just on correction.

Bigpikle, that was a very interesting thread. First time I've ever heard of a Gloss Meter. Think I'll look around detailingworld for more posts/info about that gloss meter.

My usual internet detailing suppliers don't seem to carry the 3M Ultrafina or 3M pads. Can anyone suggest a few reputable places to order them from?

Is it possible to two-step really hard clears that need serious correction using M105 followed by Ultrafina and a blue pad?

I four-stepped that stupid Suburban...

1. Menzerna PG with black wool (X3 in many places)

2. MSIP purple foamed wool.

3. PO106FF (and on half the truck, 1Z Hochglanz) Edge White Finishing Wool.

4. PO106FF, LC Black finishing foam.

Of course, alot of that work was self-inflicted. I could have skipped the white finishing wool entirely, but the SIP was definitely needed after the PG. It would be great to be able to go right from M105 straight to the Ultrafina.

More help/ideas/thoughts/criticisms greatly appreciated.
