2001 Integra Type R meets P21s

Single stage paint

Full Paint correction was the order. Some of the paint measured in the 70s but all swirls were removed anyways. Some random scratches remained here and there but you have to look to see even with the halogens.

8 hours of work

qew
clay
sip purple wool 1800rpm
sip white/green pad 1500 rpm
sip green pad flex speed 6
Ultrafina SE blue pad on hood
EZ Creme glaze green pad udm speed 6
P21s udm finishing pad speed 6

Before





All taped up and ready to lose some weight



What I had to deal with - the paint didn't respond to anything except wool







50/50 fender done door untouched



After

















My favorite picture it was getting late and didn't take enough good pictures. Pretty hard with yellow.

Re: 2001 Integra Type R meets P21s

NO ONE HAS REPLIED TO THIS YET!?!!

Wow man, I didnt know yellow could shine so nicely. Great work!! As much as i like type-r's you would think they would hook you up with some better wheels. Get some advans on that thing and good to go!

Nice post. thanks

Re: 2001 Integra Type R meets P21s

I am very impressed Thomas!!

What a huge difference. The owner must have been totally surprised with the outcome.

I don't use P21S very often, but whenever I have a yellow car to detail, I use it for an LSP. It's probably the best looking carnauba I have ever used on yellow. It just gives an incredible glow!!

Top notch work

Re: 2001 Integra Type R meets P21s

excellent work, I just did a 2001 base, that had been painted on all over the place, what a pain. The black interior in it seemed to be a dust magnet

Re: 2001 Integra Type R meets P21s

I forgot that the Phoenix Yellow Type R was a single stage paint.

Really good turn around. I really like the P21 as an LSP on yellow. Looks just as good as Souveran.

Re: 2001 Integra Type R meets P21s

Awesome detail!!!! I'm surprised wool was the only thing that worked on this car. Got me worried now as I'm doing a yellow ITR this spring as well in similar condition. Did you find a lot of dirt particles were caked on to the back of the vehicle? When I had done a yellow ITR (same one that I'll be doing this spring), after clay there was still tons of dirt embedded in the paint.

Great job again! Yellow looks really nice when done properly!

Re: 2001 Integra Type R meets P21s

wow - lovely gloss finish you have achieved there....

my garage queen is SS yellow and hard as rock. Makes my Audi clear seem soft

Havent yet got it fully corrected with UDM only, but yours seems like the process I need. Looks like wool on the rotary is what I need.
