    2005 Corvette - A Miracle Detailing - CQuartz Professional

    The client just purchased this car with just a little over 10k on the ODO.
    It was covered in swirls marks!!! It looked like it was attacked by Spiderman.

    It had VERY hard paint! I tried many different combinations of products and pads.
    Due to the nature of the beast, it went inch by inch slow and took a lot of time.
    Normal pads/products did not even make a dent. Warning: Do not try this at home.

    The winning combo...
    Correction: Rupes 21 - M101/M105 combined on LC Purple Thin Foamed Wool Pads
    Polishing: Rupes 15 - Rupes 5" Yellow Polishing Foam Pads with Meguiars M210

    Dlux on Trim / Fly-By-Forte on glass / Paint coated with CQuartz Professional
    Convertible Top / RaggTopp Fabric Convertible Top Cleaner & Aerosol Protectant

    Yes, I didn`t expect the GM paint to be that hard!
    Whatever I threw at it...it just laughed at me.

    Once I figured out what worked it wasn`t too bad.
    It was slow. The M101/105 combo on the pad left a haze.
    M210 with a Rupes Yellow foam pad cleared it up and left a nice finish.

    Thanks for the feedback. Did you see the before and after video?

    Thank you!

    I`m still working on the storyboard layout. My biggest issue is trying to get it all in a <60 vid.
    I like to make one vid and post it on all the social media. Many have a 60 sec. or less limit.

    M110 and M210 are the latest compounds/polishes from Meguiars.
    My understanding is that outside of M101, it`s the first new polishes (in 10 years) since M105/M205.
    I still like M205 but IMHO M210 is a huge technology leap forward.

    I`m happy with the results obtained with M210. It`s a winner!
    NOTE: Then M105/M101 combo I used left a big fog in the paint.
    M210 cleared to fog and left a nice bright, glossy finish.
