    Need some advice/help with paint correction

    There are still some RIDS in certain minor areas but only visible if you really look for it, at the right angle and light. But in the end its a daily and to get rid of them I would def need a yellow pad. I wasnt going to keep at it with an orange. So overall very happy with the results, learnt...

    Need some advice/help with paint correction

    [PICTURE HEAVY] 3 shot comparisons. 1 - Pre wash. 2 - After wash and clay. 3 Final after everything. Had a ton of chips on the front. Didnt want to repsray so took the pain staking effort of filling them in, sanding them and then polishing them out. Huge difference. Still some can be seen if...

    Need some advice/help with paint correction

    Finally done with it all, put a second layer of epic today to make sure I covered it all. Got the hang of using a DA. I def liked menz polishes more due to the ease of use. Less dusting (compared to m105) made it better for my allergies. For the roof, bonnet, fenders, front bumper and trunk...

    Need some advice/help with paint correction

    Thanks for the reply. Sections were not bigger than 2x2, probably a tad smaller. Ill go smaller a bit more. I was going pretty slow, having never used this before was challenging a bit. The vibrations, trying to keep a steady pace. My triceps have had a good workout haha. Didnt think of the...

    Need some advice/help with paint correction

    Forgot to mention another thing. I worked in sections. So the roof I did in 6 sections. Trunk top 2. Bonnet 6. That’s all I have been able to do as wasn’t getting enough correction and kept giving up for a while. Been at it for 3 days. Frustrating but still trying. After doing the boot and...
