    Need help

    I would either get a professional cosmetic bumper repairer or fill it in your self with body putty and sand it smooth then, undercoat, then sand again and finally use a spray paint can in the same colour, and then a clear coat over it, all processes will be time consuming to get it right.

    Sealants: Slow vs Fast curing times

    I am also confused about Sealants, I understand that a ceramic coat or glass coat has to have a certain drying or levelling time, while a lesser sealant may have a shorter drying time BUT then there is those nano sealants they react with the paint straight away and become one.

    Pearl White Lexus IS F - Detailed by Lawrence

    I have the same problem with these and am thinking of peeling them off, how did you address these? I know they are scuff protectors and you can get replacements at some huge costs from Lexus but I think I will be able to maintain the paint properly without them.

    Pearl White Lexus IS F - Detailed by Lawrence

    What a GREAT job on a Pearl White car, well done, pics are excellent. unfortunately I haven't an ISF but do have the same colour and it has never been machine polished from new and still without swirls. I won't let the Lexus dealership touch the car with their complimentary FREE wash on service.

    You did such a good job of removing the overspray (and making the paint super smooth) that the rest of the car that didn't have overspray is now crap, tell that to him.

    What do you do with your car cover?

    If the paint is not clean (even if it looks clean) then putting the cover on is going to put fine scatches on the paint. You have to do it after you wash and dry the car.

    Recommended car shampoo?

    Any of those would be suitable, as long as you have a PH balance shampoo that is not aggressive, it is probably more important how you wash then which shampoo.
