Hello everyone. This detail was done a couple weeks ago. THe vehicle was in rough shape paintwise due to some driving in the woods. The verticles had many deep rids from brush. Process was as follows:



Wash Kit Carnauba Wash

Clay with meguiars overspray clay/mild

Hi Temp EC/OPT Polish via wool pad @ 1500 rpm

Blackfire SRC finishing Polish via meguiars polishing pad @ 1500 rpm

Meguiars #21



Meguiars Hyper Dressing on Tires, Trim, and Wells.

Invisble Glass on windows



PICS:

-afters-

- the reason zaino was not used is I use it as an upsale item with meguiars #21 being the norm.



- total working time: 5.5 hours

Nice job Greg!



I have to ask, you're not getting any buffer trails from finsihing with a polishing pad. I seem to always need to finish with a greg pad.



When you polish cars in general, do you swirl remove every section of paint, or only the major bodypanels?

Joy, 0 holograms. And yes I polish all panels. Good to see ya! :getdown
 
WOW! from wool to a polishing pad? That is some nice work Greg!



Now what did you do with the truck in the first set of pics? :chuckle:
 
The truck turned out really nice! Looks pretty much swirl free and very deep and wet. Honestly, I doubt using Zaino over #21 would have made an appreciable difference in appearance. :)

Sorry I worded in weird. Its Zaino instead of #21. I highly doubt the Z will bond over #21 but I could be wrong. Thanks for the comments.



In regard to wool to polishing pad the EC/OP left some very minor holograms that the blackfire finishing polish aka po106ff cleans up to perfection very easily.

Very deep, wet and glowing. Seems that #21 is becoming a hot item around here. Great work!

I got a 12 oz sampler over a year ago and liked it but stopped using it for a while until I got a half gallon. Its what I use on my full details unless a Zaino upsell is purchased.
