Hi friends

As above, i'd like to know what can use on hard german paint, a Mercedes, in terms of pads and polishes, from start to finish.
Paint needs jeweling to a deep reflective shine.

I have the following:
  • LC CCS pads (white, yellow, black), HT crimson
  • Optimum Red polishing and wool pad
  • Sonax yellow heavy polishing and grey finishing pad
  • menzerna fg400, 106FA, 203s
  • optimum hyper polish and hyper compound
  • menz powerlock sealant, PB black hole, collinite 476s and optiseal

got both the makita rotary and the flex DA.

the aim is to create a deep reflective shine and durability. Owner is not keen for a permanent coating. And above all, he want to complete everything quickly.

so guys how would you advise i proceed?


many thanks

FG400 + foam cutting pad, Power Finish + white or grey, Black Hole + grey if your really feeling motivated, then whatever LSP you want. The Flex should be fine for this, and Menzerna will perform like a champ on that hard clear.
 
Unless your being paid for full correction I would give him an AIO it buys you time and you make more money per hour. If he is a bread and butter client make a test spot for compounds and process so he understands what it takes to have perfect paint.
You really need to educate a client about what it is detailing means
