The paint on my exploder is complete garbage to say the least :( but at least now its glossy! Its to a point where i cannot polish it anymore because it just makes it worse. It has "crows feet" bad on every panel but thats another topic for a later time.

I clayed, applied opti-seal on three consecutive days, then tonight I applied BFWD wax then BFWD sealant and here are the pics!

I'd say it was worth all the effort....you saved the paint and will save face when your customers see it.

agreed......esp the point of saving face....never get your hair cut from someone with a bad haircut...or eat a meal from a skinny chef......


good job on the rescue.....

Looks good, and I am sure its a good representation of your work, especially when potential clients see it.

The only thing I found odd in your description is that you put Wet Diamond sealant over Midnight Sun? Mis-type, or did you really apply the system flip-flopped? If so, how come? Just me being intrigued. =)

Wax before sealant?

Nope no mis-type. I've been doing it this way since I started using this stuff almost 2yrs ago I think. Its seems to last longer that way and give it a deeper shine.
