[Residue Issues]
I just finished polishing my car via Menzerna Powerfinish followed by P085rd. After jeweling the paint it was burnished to a super high gloss, crystal clear, sharp reflection type finish. But everytime I tried to remove the polish residue, I`d get hazing and streaking on the finish ( I used new mf cloths with 91% IPA to remove the residue). Afterwords, It was still deep and glossy but I feel polish wasn`t completely removed. Before I went to applying my LSP, I washed the entire car with 3oz of CG`s citrus wash in 1.5 gallons of water. It was my hope that this dilution would have completely removed all polish residue and cleaned the paint to the bare clearcoat.
Then I excitedly applied Poxy (1st time) after hearing so much about it and I wasn`t incredibly impressed with the final look. Sure, my paint had no swirls and scratches but, I was expecting more gloss and depth. The way the finish looked right after p085rd was really jaw dropping to me.
So I believe that I need something to clean the paint really thoroughly from polish and or wax residue.
1) What do you guys clean your paint with after polishing? I want to remove poxy, and give it another try but thoroughly cleaning the paint to the bare clear before LSP-ing. 2)Should I use KAIO? 3)Would that completely remove all oils/polish residue?
