Foamed using ssf/hw/apc

rinse

Washed 2 bucket lambswool mitt and a strong concentration of hw

rinsed and misted with last touch and dried using mf towel

Clayed using Sonus green ultra fine and lt

waxed with Pete's 53

2nd layer to come tomorrow

couple of poor pics :oops:

Thanks for looking

Nice results and good reflections.

Did you wash it again after claying before giving it a coat of wax?

misted over with lt and buffed between claying and waxing

That's an excellent finish, good work

Thats a good finish PP, Never used Petes 53 but gives a nice wet looking finish to the red with good deep reflections.

Good work

Great work mate

Not that I know anything about car cleaning, but that paintwork looks superb.

(whoever you are).

Looks good i just hope that it lasts as it didnt when i have it on mine :(

Top work though mate

Are you and Tom having a shiny red Octy competition?

Did you wax it with the G220? How are you getting on with it?

Yup buffed off using the g220, also started to do a bit of swirl correction previously, but the sonus white pads I have, the velcro felt backing is pretty crap, need to get some megs ones

Good work mate, how easy is the Pete's 53 to work with? Easy to apply and buff off?

Easy as pie mate, really nice to work with.

Needs a couple of costs IMO but looks good and is good VFM if you want shine over endurance

I have been looking out for some to pop up on DW to try and some just has but it looks like I have missed out on it................results look good though.............

Did you just go with one coat or a couple?

That really is very glossy indeed - the paint does indeed look in very nice condition!!

Perhaps I need something a little more exotic on top of the Colinite 476s?? :rubchin:

That's why I suggest we put the CG WWWW on top.................

Went with one coat to start with then then did another coat a couple of days after.

Ill keep an eye out as well as i think ive got next to nothing left in my pot.

If ive got a decent amount left ill give you a shout for a try

Got mine from cyc if that helps.

Out of interest as anyone got their hands on some dodo supernatural?

at £95 they can keep it as the zymol titanium ive got does more than i need it to and i only have that as it was given to me

If ive got a decent amount left ill give you a shout for a try

Looks good

Heard good things about the 53 as well. Which one are you bringing later?

Steve

The Octy it will be, just finnished washing it (again ) and applied a second coat by hand:O Got about half the car buffed off and then it started to rain Still managed to get it finnished t'was a bugger tho, then went over with Sonus caranuba spritz, overall well chuffed with the result and the rain prooved the beading qualities

Still needs a good few swirls removing but that will have to wait for now.
