ColorX

[mrzeee]

tried for the first time yesterday...

test subject was my 95 cherokee(white uuugh, needs a good clay not to mention a paint job, lots of spray paint touch ups)...



initial impression...

nice cleaning abilities - though did nothing overspray (hoped it might, didn`t think it would



good polishing abilities - hid some of the swirls...though didn`t get rid of the water mark etching - finish slick and pretty shiny (for white anyway)



durability - not sure, though I do plan on throwing on a coat of NXT (but NXT isn`t renowned for its duability)



easy to use - easy on easy off - with PC set@4.5 and megs polishing pad



overall - Hi-tech equivalent of megs cleaner wax(consumer line)

shine - was better the second day(is it a polymer based cleaner?)



durability - well two days of rain and still beading



may apply one more colorx and then nxt...

First, clay to remove your overspray.



Second, ColorX is mostly just a polish not a blemish corrector so you will need something more like ScratchX to remove the etching and any swirls it may have.

yes I know clay for overspray - was curious on how the colorX would attack it..and I as I noted/predicted didn`t really help



also thought that colorx was more of a chemical cleaner??

[JasonD]

Oh okay, I apologize for that. I didn`t realize you were posting your findings.



ColorX is a chemical cleaner, but I think you are wanting more of cut/polisher than a cleaner.

no prob...my jeep is my test bed...poor old girl...and the jeep will be there when I start experimenting with DACP...



but I wanted to try the colorx out heard good things...and may do some detailing on the side wanted to see if this would be a good one stepper for people who want a simple wash and wax job...
