Done a few corsa red ferraris and all SS paint. I go through twice as many pads! Beautiful work, Scott, as usual.

Here's my take... If it's a DA machine crank it all the way up to 6. Do 4-6 passes, not 3 and with enough pressure to compress the pad but NOT stop the spin. Car Pro says that's a "rapidly" diminishing abrasive. Let it break down and then polish. If after that you get the same results move...

I love 3D One. I also use Sonax Perfect Finish.

Beautiful, Scott! Good 'ole PO85RD. I used that with LC black pads back in the day. Good to see it's still effective.

One of the things that bugs me and, I admit may be just me, but when I visit company websites and see typo's. This may not be too important for most...as long as people get the intended message...but we're "detailers" and should pay attention to those things. Again, I may be in the minority...

My approach to paint transfer... I have ALWAYS wanted to remove something on top of the paint with a chemical cleaner or clay. My favorite is Duragloss 501. I do this first and see if after there are any scratches in or below the paint i can adress later. It doesn't make sense to sand or...

Wow!!!

Some (incl me) would argue that was the BEST M3! It will look beautiful again when you're done and ready for the next 27!

I truly appreciate the comments guys. I'm adjusting my wash and decon procedures as a result.

I like your iron decon procedure, Eldo. Rinse, apply iron remover and give it a few mins then normal wash after. I think i'll change up my process to that. My only question is when do you clay?

Yeah, good point Chilly. I NEVER want any iron solution to dry on the paint.

I've seen several pro level videos on YouTube where they combine iron spray treatment as the lube and then clay with it on the surface. I can see the time savings with this approach but i personally don't like it. What say you folks?

That's wild! Never heard of it till now. Great job on the removal. Now watch...with all the dang products us detailers are tempted with watch someone come out with "Ceramic Infused Whiskey Fungus Remover"!

Iron X! Oh wait, no... Duragloss 502. I love cherry smell.
