ONR will not remove wax or sealant from your car. For longer lasting protection in a spray wax, I recommend Optimum Car Wax. Just as fast as UQW but lasts much longer. UQW is more of a "top-up" whereas OCW is designed to protect like a regular wax.

Using ONR on fresh paint shouldn't present any problems at all. You may want to mix some up and have it in a spray bottle also so you can pre-soak the bugs and allow them to soften up for a few minutes to make them easier to remove when you wash them off.

Rusty rotors have plagued me forever after a wash!!

Beautiful work!! Gorgeous!

:welcome: What are you going to be using it on? Your personal vehicle(s) or are you using it for a detail business? If you're correcting paint and time is a major factor, then go with the Flex. I recently purchased a Flex and love it and I own a DA as well. With the LC changeable backing...

"#9 Swirl Remover is a very gentle cleaner/polish, the only product more gentle that #9 SR 2.0 that still offers some cleaning ability would be Deep Crystal Paint Cleaner which is a chemical cleaner only, while the #9 SR 2.0 contains a diminishing abrasive. If you were to feel some #9 Swirl...

Tell him that the coal dust from the power plant powering his "clean energy" car will bond to the paint and need to be clayed off. LOL!

AND... your addiction begins! :buffing: The Meg's glaze will probably be unnecessary since you're removing the swirls and polishing the paint. Besides, Meg's glaze was developed for single stage paint so you may see little to no difference in a base coat/clear coat finish. Have fun!

I agree w/Ski2. No need for a glaze since it shouldn't be necessary since you are removing swirls and scratches. I like Opt Hyper Compound and polish but I've used Meg's UC and UP with good results, even on black paint. Hope you post some pics!

+1 :xyxthumbs: I do love Optimums Instant Detailer and Gloss Enhancer as well.

Sounds like a plan. With all due respect, I see no need for an IPA wipe down unless you are applying a coating or trying to remove polishing oils and such.
