P21S Process Suggestions

[NewMINICooperS]

Well after thinking of going with Zaino and topping with P21S and then doing more research I decided to not use Zaino on this car as it is black and just go with P21S. Looking for some suggestions on this process.



1) Dawn Wash

2) ClayMagic Clay and Spray

3) P21S Bodywork Conditioning Shampoo

4) P21S Gloss-enhancing Paintwork Cleaner

5) 3M Perfect-It Swirl Mark for Dark Colors

5.5) Is another Wash needed here?

6) P21S Carnauba Wax(does layering have any effect with p21s?)

7) Clearkote Quick Detailer

8) P21S Wheel Cleaner

9) P21S Carnauba Wax on White Painted Wheels

10) Z-14 Plastic-Magic Cleaner & Polish for exterior plastic

11) Z-12 Clear-View Glass Polish for windows

12) Z-16 Perfect Tire Gloss



Using:

1) Pakshak Microfiber Towels

2) Fieldcreast 100% cotton towels restiched

3) Fieldcreast 100% cotton wax applicators

4) Chenille Wash Mitt

This is the order I would use

8) P21S Wheel Cleaner

1) Dawn Wash

2) ClayMagic Clay and Spray

1) Dawn Wash

5) 3M Perfect-It Swirl Mark for Dark Colors

4) P21S Gloss-enhancing Paintwork Cleaner

5.5) Is another Wash needed here?: depends, I usually do though

6) P21S Carnauba Wax(does layering have any effect with p21s?) I think layering increases the depth slightly

7) Clearkote Quick Detailer: if needed to buff

9) P21S Carnauba Wax on White Painted Wheels

10) Z-14 Plastic-Magic Cleaner & Polish for exterior plastic

11) Z-12 Clear-View Glass Polish for windows

12) Z-16 Perfect Tire Gloss

I`d substitute step 3 with cheap car wash soap and save the P21s for subsequent washings after the detail.



I wouldn`t do step 5.5. You remove the fillers.



Just my $.02



Oh, always do wheels & tires first.

So how well does P21S apply over graphics? - my car will eventually have several graphics on the car for products the company I work for sells and/or manufacturers. What sort of special care will be needed here? I`m assuming clay is out of the question on those areas once the graphics are applied. How about the P21S?
