hey guys I've been gone from the forums for a while busy with work and family, but of course never too busy to keep the cars nicely clean and detailed ;) I'm coming up on my last mixed spray bottle of UWW+ and before I order a new concentrate I was wondering if there's anything else out there...

I think they're just out of stock on some of the stuff.... like even the bigger size panel wipe spray was out of stock but it looks like they just got some back.

cooper, from all the reading I've done about these coatings together it seems that most don't put anything on them after a wash.... or at least the don't put it in the description or mention it in their review....I did see a few where they topped it with C2 V3 though

are u talking about right out of the vial before u prime the app pad?

SONAX polymer netshield gets my vote....nice candy look, excellent beading, great durability and the application is decent depending which method you use

as was said above I would shy away from a carnuba wax in a hot climate location like ur in.... I'm in AZ and found out about that the hard way as well.... get a good quality sealant, which will be able to stand up to the hot temps, and also I would probably switch waterless wash also....I...

thx for the insight budgetplan, it's looking like I'm gonna go with EXO V3 and give it a shot....the hydrophobic properties are really what I'm more so after....we get nasty monsoons here in AZ and the "slushy" mix of dirt and rain is a PITA if the car sat through the storm and has the mix dry...

Angus, nice video!!!....that looks super simple to apply....I like the thought of having the harder 9h surface from CSL, but not sure on it's stand alone beading....where as EXO is a known hydrophobic maniac and has upped longevity and hardness in the newest version....both will get regular...

It's been a couple months since this thread had any action so I thought I'd bump it up a little....I'm looking at finally getting into a coating and have pretty much narrowed it down to CSL or EXO V3. It seems as though CSL is the "harder" coating at 9h but the V3 EXO is now up to 7h from the...

Was planning on doing some detailing and playing with my mk2, but my pre 4th of July order shipment with my pads isn't getting here until after the holiday due to some type of system error :(

Yea im hoping Nick will see this and chime in, I'm a little bummed cuz I was looking forward to trying out my mk2 this wknd

If that's the case I still put to upgrade to West Coast shipping which is 3 day shipping....no big items or aerosols were ordered to exclude me either.

Got my tracking info and its saying it wont be in til July 6th....i thought it was guaranteed by 4th of July?....also figured since my order qualified for west coast shipping upgrade cuz I spent $152 but now I have to wait til AFTER the long holiday wknd

SWEET!!!!....just stocked up on Rupes pads for my 15 mk2, the bonus UHS pad is awesome too since i bought a few of those too

Very good job for ur first time....and it being ur first detail, and it DD, those are VERY acceptable results....it's tough with DDs and what some ppl get caught up with is chasing perfection on them....it's impossible, and it sort of drove me nuts a little at first, but u just have to live with...

OP if ur talking about the Pavilions , good luck....like was said above, those ppl there think they take the best care of their cars despite the swirls and scratches projected by the bright white lights in the parking lot....plus a lot of them are tight a$$es .... I've been there and sort of...

Welcome!!!....and nice car/garage What part of AZ are u in?

Todd I just wanted to say I like the analogy of cars u used while explaining the differences and refinements of the mk2 to the legacy :)

What's wrong with the blue pads?

Kind of new to polishing still, and am gonna be stepping up to a long throw polisher here soon....when u say u rotate pads after each panel, are u just going to a fresh pad on each panel and discontinuing use of the original pad or are u just letting it take a break to cool down before going...
