Client recently traded in their Civic and got into an SUV. Paint was pretty hammered. All swirled up, dealer rotary pad marks (borderline burns), etc. Paint was soft.


The ‘details’:

Adam’s strip wash shampoo.
Adam’s tire and rubber cleaner.
Adam’s wheel cleaner.
McKee’s37 Hydro blue to seal wheels/calipers.
DeFelsko PTG.
Scangrip lighting.
Flex 3401 and pixie.
Griot’s correcting and perfecting creams.
Optimum panel wipe.
22ple HPC.
GYEON tire for tire dressing.
Auto Finesse glass cleaner.
Metro vacuum.
McKee’s37 quick interior detailer.


Thank you for looking!



















 
Sizzle Chest:
Did you polish the chrome with that chrome cleaner/polish creme you are beta-testing, or just coat it with the HPC?

Did not know that Honda black could be a "soft" paint or really, the clear coat over it. How do you characterize or what determines what a "soft" paint is like? What special process or methodology do you need to do to properly finish out this paint or maybe what varies for you from a "normal" paint? Kinda like asking a professional golfer how he changes his swing on a drive to slightly hook it when needed to get around a tree or into a dog leg fairway. I know; hard to describe in words and even if you watch it, its hard to duplicate the nuances of the bio-physical mechanics (AKA , grip, touch, feel, and body motion or position)

The Honda CRV looks beautiful. You are truly a black-vehicle master.
 
Thanks all!!!

Guz, I do at times. Insanity to me is a great top/2nd coat over Mistico.

Lonnie: I did not. It was in good shape and cleaned up with the wash/final wipe down. Then was coated.

Soft to me is something that corrects easily, with the least aggressive method first. I did not have to bust out the big guns (pads or product) for this paint, so I consider it soft.
