Which Products to use on Lemans Metallic BMW?

What products should i use for this paint?


Im thinking the AIO+SG+Souvern

I think the souveran will attract alot of dust, so im also considersing p21s and NXT paste

What do you think about this combo?

Im trying to achieve the shine below

GC= Gold Class is a consumer-level wax (with light cleaners) available at local stores.

I would try AIO + UPP + Nattys

For SG hazing, do a search on WOWO

Like Lowejackson wrote, use the WOWO method for the SG and you'll have no problems. Use at least 3 layers of SG - 4 or 5 wouldn't hurt. Then top with a good carnuba.

You'll like the shine.

SG is a pain and that's why I've switched to UPP. You'll be amazed at the results. I like it alot better than SG. I still use AIO as a base.

AIO + EX-P + Nattys

VM + EX-P + nattys

I can see its very glossy, but not a lot of depth and very reflective, I think VM + EX-P + nattys would look the most wet/reflective. I find EX to make my darkish blue car look nice and wet but not very reflective more depth.

You can layer EX-P and/or Nattys.
