Just picked up a PC and a few products, I`m gonna tackle the car tomorrow. It`s an 06 Jetta GLI and it`s "Deep Black" (metallic pearl black). Paint`s still pretty fresh, just has some light swirls all around, and a couple spots that are swirled a little worse. Most of the driver side was repainted about 5 weeks ago cuz the car was T-boned :angry . They did a nice job but there`s some very slight holograms from the buffer they used, and slight orange peel in a small spot on the bumper
The products I have:
1 CSS orange pad
1 CSS white pad
2 CSS grey finishing pads
2 orange microfiber bonnets and and 2 microfiber towels
XMT #3
XMT #1
XMT Carnuba Finishing Glaze
Klasse high gloss sealant
I also have the two free (generic?) orange pads from Autogeek, the white pad that came with the porter cable, and some meguires NXT paste wax. I don`t really plan on using these, are these pads good for anything?
I plan on going over the entire car with the XMT #1/white pad to see where I`m at. Then if necessary hitting the more substantial swirls and the with XMT #3/orance pad, then back over those spots with XMT#1/white pad. I`m thinking I should use the Klasse sealant before the XMT carnuba finishing glaze. The description on the XMT finishing glaze makes it sound like a cleaner type wax (fine abrasives), so I`m just trying to make sure it won`t take the Klass sealant off. I plan on putting both of those on with a grey pad, and removing them with the PC and a bonnet. Is there anything I should be doing differently?
