I tried that recipe a couple of weeks ago . . . looks good. The Meg's #3 is something of a pain-in-the-butt, though, as it dusts quite a bit. I applied by PC with a polishing pad, and like other Meg's products, you need to work it until it's dry and almost gone, then wipe the residue. This process created quite a bit of dust. Some others have reported luck using other glazes or paint cleaners before BF, so I might try a similar process again in the future using a different product that isn't quite as messy (I believe S100 cleaner was mentioned by another poster recently, I may give that a shot this spring).
I applied the BF GEP with a 3M finishing pad to the entire car, then removed the residue with mf (there's no need to remove it "as-you-go" if you don't care to - it's very easy to remove even after a half hour of sitting). Then I applied BF II sealant over the top of that (again, grey 3M finishing pad), and removed with mf towels. Unfortunately, I've had some problems with the sealant leaving a haze that will "smear" if you wipe it. I was able to take care of most of the smearing with QD (I used Z6), and what was left disappeared after the first wash, so it doesn't seem to persist. Not a huge problem, but something to be aware of . . . I believe it may be temperature related. BF II seems to take quite a while to set up in lower temps, and I've only had the opportunity to use it in temps around the high 40's.
The car really looked great at this point . . . a bit wetter and richer than straight Zaino, but the silver flake in the paint on my WRX was still standing out nicely (not muted much by the glaze or the BF products). It looks a bit like Z topped with S100, but not quite that "wet", and without the loss of "pop" from the metallic. :xyxthumbs
BTW, the sealant spreads incredibly well . . . I used less than 1/4 oz. for the entire car.
