first detail w/ PC... wash-> clay-> UP->PP->EP

[imported_nadir]

hey wassup guys



thanks for alot of help. I got my PC 7424 and a bunch of stuff from Detailers Paradise. Included was the Einszett bundle so instead of using Zaino or Klasse, I went all out with Einzsett.



Since it was my first detail with a PC, I attacked my dad`s neglected 1994 corolla with 10 yr. old factory paint... i believe it doesn`t have a clearcoat on it.



Anyways, I started doing one side of the car with PP/yellow cutting pad but that wasn`t working so well. I think switched to UP/yellow cutting and went through the whole car. Afterwards, I hit it with PP/white polishing pad. Finally, I went through the car with EP/gray pad.



I think there was a noticable difference! At least this should protect the car for the rest of the year... my dad was quite happy!



I wish the paint had a clearcoat.. I have a superblack maxima (base black w/ clearcoat) and I love mirror reflections... now that I know I can use the PC well, I plan to go at it on my maxima. I got a bunch of swirls that need to be fixed on that car.



anyways, here`s the before/after pics!

you know, my fav part was AFTER claying the car... even tho the paint still looked like crap, I love the smoooooooth feeling.



thanks again guys.

Nice work! The 1Z polishes really do work well. I had my first PC / 1Z experience today and I was very impressed, even on the small areas I worked on. A full detail on all 4 vehicles is coming soon, I can`t wait. Keep up the good work.
