Product Suggestion for Tango Red (Burnt Orange)

As the subject suggests I have a Tango Red Hyundai Accent that I need to do some work on - It's brand new - 1000 miles only.

The color is classified as Tango Red - but to me it looks more like a bright orange or burnt orange.

I'm looking for product(s) suggestions for a full exterior detail.

Please don't use abbreviations - i'm not to good at them.

Thanks,

I found this video awhile back. IMO, Z2 looks awesome on burnt orange.

Do you have many imperfections in your paint?

Re: Product Suggestion for Tango Red (Burnt Orange)

Alright - I have the Megs and Ultima Paint Guard - I don't have Zaino or Poorboys.

What about a nuba on top of the Ultima? I have some p21s

Re: Product Suggestion for Tango Red (Burnt Orange)

The color of your vehicle doesn't matter when it comes to detailing. No swirls + a quality carnauba or sealant will work just fine. Just use what looks best to you-no one here can tell you what that is.
