    2015 Mazda 6 GT ~New Car Detail & Prep ~ Optimum Gloss Coat

    Purchased a new 15` Mazda 6 GT w/ Tech Package last week.

    Dealer never washed it or detailed it by request and I actually got to watch them peel the stickers off the hood & rear of the car.

    Friday morning I began the detailing & decontamination process.

    Foamed
    Rinsed
    Dried
    IronX
    Rinsed
    Foamed
    2 Bucket Method
    Rinsed
    Clayed
    Dried

    Polished w/ Flex 3401
    Sf4000
    5" White Hybrid pads
    IPA wipe
    Coated Paint w/ Optimum Gloss Coat
    Coated Exterior Trim w/ CarPro Dlux

    This was my very 1st experience using a machine polisher and coating.
    Not too shabby if I do say so myself

    Here are the pics!

    Very nice job! I`m loving Gloss Coat. Awesome slickness and shine, and the easiest coating to apply by far!

    Thank You 52 split…. yea, I`m really loving the Opti Gloss Coating too.

    Since applying it, the very first thing I noticed is that it sheds dust like crazy.

    When I used to apply sealants and/or waxes, my car would literally be covered in a thin blanket of dust within hours.

    Not anymore….

    Going to be doing the same thing I did to my car last weekend to my wife`s car tomorrow tomorrow.

    I`ll be sure to post some pics!

    Hmm. That`s a good thing for me to know living in New Mexico with two black cars...
