This was my 1st black car and I think it turned out really good! This was a full correction detail and took me about 8 hours. Heres the process:



- Wash with Optimum No Rise Wash

- Clay with Adams clay using ONR as lube (real time saver!)

- Polish with Menzerna Intensive Polish w/ orange light cutting pad

- Polish with Menzerna Nano Polish w/ white polishing pad

- Menzerna Finishing glaze w/ blue pad

- Collinte 845 w/ grey pad

- All above done via UDM

- While wax was curing interior was wiped down with DP interior cleaner and DP surface protectant

- washed again with ONR to remove dust from polishing

- Wheels treated with DP wheel cleaner

damn how do you do it so fast with the UDM? It would take me more then 8 hours just to polish my car with pb`s ssr 2.5 and 1.0 with the UDM.

Very nice. That black pearl color on Evo`s is awesome when it`s polished up. Well done.

Thanks all!



Slickrsx: I started out on my test panel with SSR 2.5 as I had great results with it on my Evo, but I wasn`t getting the results I wanted. I then switched to the Menz. IP on an orange pad followed by the Nano Polish and it worked great. To be honest it probably would have only taken me 6.5 hrs, but there were guys from my car club there and they kept asking me questions. That and it was 92 degrees out and had to stop for water quite frequently lol

Looks great. I`m new to this site and just wondered what UDM was? I had a quick rummage but didn`t find a acronym list...
