Thanks NYD!



Sounds like a plan for the weekend

Scott,



Would it be safe to use VM and FP on a freshly re-painted car?



I have awhile to wait before I can apply any wax.



Thanks

Final Polish is said to be 'body shop' safe, but I would contact Car Polishes to make sure you can use it on fresh paint. Vanilla Moose does have protective properties, so I wouldn't use it until the paint is completely cured.

yes, you can use VM and FP on a freshly painted car.

Both contain no silicone.

True, but you also don't want to seal fresh paint either. :nixweiss

Thanks Scott.



It's only been a week since the car was painted and the only thing I have done to date was to apply a layer of IHG.



The car looks great and I sure don't want to mess up a new paint job.



Think I will just have to force my self to be patient and wait till the paint is fully cured in about 6 more weeks.

Final polish is used by most body shops out here in staten island, once it is taken out of the spray booth and baked you can use it.

I use it all the time when i do work on fresh painted cars. even on cars that are painted the same day.

Hmmm....maybe it's this stuff then:

Since Car Polishes is located in New York (as is NYDetailer), it should be the same product. I haven't tried Final Polish, but have used Vitreo (from the same supplier) , a very good product. :bigups

Thanks for clarifying that for me.

Scott,



Would you put Carnuba wax over the moose wax? I'm thinking AIO, moose wax, carnuba. Correct me if this is somewhat redundant. I love my Klasse and I would much rather use that then the VM.



Any advice?

I'd probably use AOI, Vanilla Moose and a carnuba. Moose Wax has chemical cleaners which may remove any filling properties of AIO. I think you would also be very pleased with Final Polish instead of AOI, but I'd wait until you run out before trying something else.

I tend to take photos posted online with a pinch of salt, as Photoshop is a VERY powerful tool.

I certainly hope you are not insinuating I photoshop anything I post. Not only would I not have the first clue how to do it, but I would never misrepresent my work like that. I can send you the original prints I posted in this thread if you would like.

so you're saying to leave the moose wax out??? also... vanilla moose would replace the polish/glaze products??

Yeah, if you are going to lay down AOI first, I wouldn't use Moose Wax on top of it. I use VM as a glaze in place of Meguiars Hand Polish or S100 SEC. I like the look and ease of use.
