Thank you, Scott. I appreciate that. The Stingray was more fun to work on and it attracted a lot of attention throughout the day. It was a respray and it was a little hard but it cleaned up beautifully. Even with M105 and PFW, it would look LSP ready under the halogens.

Hulk, I apply GEPC with a red pad on a PC at speed five. Work it until it's just about dry, then remove the residue with an MF.
Picus was the one that turned me on (*that* didn't sound right...) to GEPC. It really is good stuff.

Thank you, Supe.

We applied using foam applicators and removal with clean microfibre towels. Apply it like it's wax.

As Tyler mentioned, I apply with a foam applicator until tacky, let sit ~10 min, remove. You could apply with a PC or rotary in the same fashion Bee mentioned.

I enjoyed it myself and I think Picus did, too. I would love to work with Picus again. We actually did a little polishing session on an e90 323 two days after this, along with George of Detailed Image.

I wonder if P21S GEPC is the same thing as S100 Shine-Enhancing Cleanser? If so, I will be buying S100 SEC from a local bike shop I like.
