Signature Series II is close to your budget and looks awesome I think. Definitely brighter then Souveran but still carnauba deep. Plus it's easy to use like Fuzion. Or I've heard great things about S100 and P21s which may or may not be the same thing and are both in your budget.
I've been using one of these for a month now and I love it. Very well made and easy to use with my CG new car shine dressing because of it's lotion consistency.
I believe that most people see it as an AIO. I used a white CCS pad with light pressure just to give the car a quick seal and maybe benefit from the glazing characteristics of it. I think the D300 finishes up great and really doesn't "need" a finishing polish if you feel like skipping that step.
So yesterday I seized the opportunity to detail my buddy's Toxic Orange 2011 Challenger R/T. After a wash I buffed out the car with D300 on a Meg's MF cutting pad. Then went right to CG Blacklight to clean, seal and prep for the Souveran. This is my third time using Souveran and it's so...
for trade:
16 oz CG blacklight-full
16 oz CG V7 spray-full
16 oz CG Butter wet wax-85%
Gallon of ONR V2-80%
looking for a foam gun and foaming soaps or D300 and 5" MF pads, or Souveran/Fuzion/Midnight Sun.
PM if interested. Thanks, Mike
I've done trades recently with rzatch, TroyScherer, bl3ujay07, rider9195, MrGolfrider, 05xrunner, gachrid and rwright and all went smooth and perfect. rwright really went above and beyond as well, great guy to deal with.
I would go right to Blacklight after the swirl X and skip the Meg's polish. The BL will clean the paint and should refine it perfectly after swirlX at the same time leaving the sealant protection. Then do the 845 and apply V7 then and after subsequent washes.
Items for trade:
16oz CG butter wet wax 85%
32 oz ONR v2
16 oz CG new car high shine dressing (out of my gallon)
Daytona speedmaster full size brand new
Daytona speedmaster jr brand new
16oz Glossworkz Glaze 85%
Looking for souveran, fuzion, or midnight sun waxes
Yes I probably will slap on a coat of v7 after every wash and re-apply souveran every month or so. I'll post pics after my next wash with the V7 on top of the souveran.
