    wow....that is a beautiful car and a great job on the detail.



    I have a Black TT to do and I think I will be trying some of the products you listed on that car.



    What is the Power Gloss product you used with the RMG? How long did it take you?



    Again....fantastic work!!

    Sorry for the barrage of questions, but it is plainly obvious to me that you really know what you are doing, so I thought I`d ask. Thanks.
    No rotary was used on this car and I used the 4" propel pads with the cyclo and the 6.75" propel P2 pads with the DA. For the inside of the wheels, I used a long wheel brush from Turtle Wax and the clay is from JW. This detail took me 6 hours plus with interior done and I charged around US$160 for it.

    By mixing PG with RMG (70/30) it cut down the dusting by quite alot and the finishing is also much better too. I actually did a few passes with the cyclo (not PC) to tackle those more serious area.

    Looks to me those swirls were left behind by the last `detailer` that touch this car.

    I actually mixed the PG/IP with RMG in a seperate bottle.

    Yup, chinese is my mother tongue, so no problem speaking and reading Chinese .

    Power Gloss is a compound from Menzerna and RMG is a glaze from Clearkote. As mentioned, this detail took me 6 plus hours.
