Was doing a little experimentation today on the rear spoiler of my dad`s 02 Camaro testing out a couple other polishes (HD Polish and Ameridepth). Trying to figure out what polish works best for this particular paint. I ended up going back to good old M205.
I originally tried M205 on a new Meguiar`s thing polishing foam disc after doing my initial testing with the other polishes. It did a decent job getting the paint looking better. I still saw some deeper defects. Instead of reaching for some compound I figured why not test out M205 on a new Meguiar`s thin burgundy cutting foam disc. I heard some things after listening to a recent podcast on hard vs clear paint and seeing what Kevin Brown has done with the new burgundy cutting disc. So I went ahead and did that. The car has hard paint.
In the end I followed up with D302 on a Lake Country foam finishing pad to fill any remaining RIDS and then sealed the area.
50/50 with just M205 on a burgundy foam cutting disc and IPA wipe to remove any polishing oils to see how well this combo performed. I will be going this route for a majority of the car.

detailed a neighbor`s 2013 ford fusion today. I 1 step detailed it back in 02/15 using the new megs paint protect as the lsp, but it showed almost no paint beading at this time and water sheeting was equally poor. gave it a blackfire treatment this time around- btpns followed up with bfwd using my griot`s 6" da and lc pads. one of my favorite combinations.

Detailed my Jeep for the first time at my new house. Thank goodness I finally have a driveway!!
Saved about 1hr not having to pack and unpack all my detailing supplies.
No pictures sorry it got dark by the time I finished.
Busy couple days for me. Did a couple quick jobs on a Dodge Ram and an `06 Roush on Saturday. Then did a two bucket wash on both cars yesterday morning. A lot more jobs lined up (too much work for a "hobby") so I`ll try to take some pictures.

I made some hooks out of a clothes hanger for my brushes.
In the back on left side, I use a clothes hanger to hang up mitts.
The Viking Green Microfiber towels were nice towels.
