    Awesome work! I used that exact same combo when I did one a few months ago. Reflect kills it on minor stuff and brings out a ton of gloss on hard paint!. Just curiously how`d you handle the rear bumper around the exhaust? That took me FOR EVER to get right.

    IIRC that was a plastic bumper. I don`t remember it being too bad...maybe I got lucky.
    I believe I used M101 with Megs mf cutting disc followed by M205/LC white then Reflect.
    also, IIRC the front bumper and recesses had a lot of swirls and fine scratches (3" mf disc)

    I will confess the vehicle before this one was 2014 Lexus IS Obsidian black (super soft paint).
    This one was hard as a rock and laughed at 90% of my "normal" go-to correction techniques.
