Okay so I have about 5 layers of CMW and 5 Layers of Natty`s on my bike. But I just put them on without preparing the paint, with Polish/Glaze/Sealant. So now I am wanting to go back and use these products:

PwC Blue (Will this remove what is on my bike now, cause I want a clean start)
RMG
EX-P
Natty`s Blue and CMW

So what should I do to remove what is already on my bike? I want to start fresh and do it right this time, so let me know. The shine is incredible now but I think it can be better and last longer if I start over.

Thanks
Brent

That just sounds so typical of most of us. :D

While I have not used PwC Blue, I have used PwC and it seemed to do a good job of cleaning and prepping the paint.
I remember someone, (Natty Bumpo?), once describing PwC as Klasse AIO on steroids. :)

The PwC might remove some of the wax you have on their now but if you want even more to be removed, mix up some isopropyl alcohol and water 50/50 mix and that`ll take care of the rest of it. Remember that if there are defects in the paint like swirls or scrapes in the paint and you don`t remove them they`ll still be there- so maybe you should think about using a light polish (SSR1?) to really prep the paint for maximum results. Then you can do your glaze, ex-p, and infinite amounts of Natty`s :).

If you are not trying to remove any scratches or swirls, the PwC blue will be enough to clean the surface of previous products. Using the ISO would be another way or a light polish of SSR1 or a chemical cleaner would also do the trick :)

Will ssr1 work okay with a foam pad?? should I just apply or keep rubbing till it breaks down?
