After spending most of the day in the garage, here is the result. This is my 1988 Porsche Carrera with original paint. I usually put Souveran on it, but after reading all about Vanilla Moose and EX-P, I wanted to see how it would look on my 911. Not too shabby if you ask me.

Here is a picture of my wife`s 350Z with the same VM + EX-P combo taken two weeks after I applied it.

Never mind the paint - look at the floor! That is one neat garage!

It all looks great.

Is that a polished concrete floor?

:xyxthumbs Looks great!

Any polishing before the VM? Have you tried topping the EXP with some Souveran yet?

I used Mequire`s #9 with my orbital before applying the VM. I`m debating about whether to top the EX-P with Souveran.



I was hoping Scottwax or Anthony would chime in with there thoughts.

The garage floor is a polyurethane / epoxy combo that is used in airplane hangars and some dealer garages.

You can top with Souveran, I did on my Dad`s black car and it added some depth without obscuring the super sharp reflections.
