First two pics, sorry about the tree reflections, I forgot how some of you feel about them! :lol



Mazda 626. Recently detailed it using #9/VM/EX-P but there were still some light spider swirls in the paint. #9 just wasn't strong enough to remove them and since I did the car on a rainy day (and for free, it belongs to my Dad), I couldn't evaluate the paint like I wanted to when I finished.



This time, I used #80 Speed Glaze and a Meguiars polishing pad. It really did the trick! Followed with VM (polishing pad) and EX-P by hand. I had a good sun spot shot...or so I thought, the sun ended up being focused on the seam between the hood and fender.

2003 Silverado SS. Regular weekly wash customer. Last waxed in mid February with #20 and #16. Used #80 Speed Glaze and a polishing pad to remove some minor hood scratches then used the Wolfgang twins, applying the pre-cleaner by PC and a finishing pad and the sealant by hand.

Man, I got a 6 and the 626 you did looks newer than mine:( I'll getcha someday. Awesome work turning both into mirrors!
 
Here is a 2002 Civic that I waxed in late January using VM and NXT. Still beading 6 days ago when I waxed it again. I took a pic of the water beading but being a white car in the sun....just wouldn't show up well. Anyway, here is how it looked right after the QEW wash:

And after the Wolfgang twins (again, finishing pad with the pre cleaner and sealant by hand).

BTW, here is his wife's Cadillac DTS two months after applying the Wolfgang twins. Just a QEW wash.

1999 Cadillac SLS:



Owned by the proverbial little old man, had only 22,000 miles on it when he died, passed along to his daughter and son-in-law. Some minor paint transfers and a very grimmy interior.



Woolite and water (6:1) on the seats:

Clay, Vanilla Moose by PC and polishing pad, EX-P by hand.

Finally, a shot of my car. #9 with orange cutting pad, VM with white polishing pad, EX-P x 2 by hand.

It would be an understatement if I said they looked good. :)



Seriously though, to me Wolfgang and EX-P are victorious! EX-P is very clear and liquid, while Wolfgang just glows. It's hard to place which is more preferable. Can you give me a little insight on which paints and which products? How about durability for the two?

I have the same problem; which look do I prefer? I really like both products and so far, both seem to be holding up well at the 2 month point. I am still playing around with colors to see which I like best on each color. EX-P has a very distinct clear look and WG has the typical carnauba glow. I am really impressed how close they come with a synthetic product.



I am going to continue using both products until I decide which I like best on each color...and even then I may still go back and forth!
