    BlackICE Prep

    Thanks to Roshan`s benevolence I will have my hands on a BlackIce sample here shortly. I plan on testing it out on my wife`s nighthawk black pearl Accord. I`m about to place an AF order and was looking for some quick advice for prepping the paint just in case I need to pick something up.

    The paint is in decent condition but it will definitely need a good polishing. Before getting my hands on some BlackICE I was going to go:
    CG Blacklight
    JetSeal
    Signature 50/50 Nuba

    Now it seems sacrilegious to not go BF all the way. Plus I`ve been looking for an excuse to get my hands on some BF. Thinking about going:
    GEP
    Wet Diamond (Multiple coats?)
    BlackICE

    My questions:
    1. Is there a reason I should go with TPnS over GEP?
    2. Should I leave the Wet Diamond completely out? And the 2 oz sample should be plenty to cover the entire at least once right?

    I just used BlackIce I hope I could answer some questions with my thread.

    My questions:
    1. Is there a reason I should go with TPnS over GEP?

    You can use either, I used GEP because I wanted to see what a non abrasive detail could do. And GEP didn`t disappoint. On some spots I used TPnS on light scratches on the rear door


    2. Should I leave the Wet Diamond completely out? And the 2 oz sample should be plenty to cover the entire at least once right?

    Leave WD out for now, BI alone did a amazing job.

    Thank you for the information, I read your thread before and that`s mostly what pushed me to go BF all the way, that and JSmooth`s constant praising of the SRC combo
