    Polish & Claybar Budget Friendly Suggestions Please

    The Griot BOSS polishes are easy to use. You could just go to Walmart and get a bottle of Meguiar's Ultimate Compound. Only like $11 for 20oz bottle. Great one-stepper medium compound that is easy to use. The use M205 to finish it off and then to maintain it down the road

    Piano Black Interior Trim Scratch Removal

    It's the same concept Mike talks about using something like a jewelling cleaner wax to finish off highly scratch sensitive paint. The slick feel makes wipe off less problematic. I thought Essence primer would also add some hardness too. I've used it on wood trim pieces with glossy clear too.

    Color Mismatch

    I agree that the color of painted plastic parts and metal parts will look different over time being exposed to sun. They don't always color fade the same. However, you are dealing with new paint.

    Masking for Iron-X

    Its the bare metal calipers that can change to a greenish color, but if you scrub the green film with your barrel cleaning brush it comes off. It doesn't really rinse off well without that agitation.

    Still a good setup?

    The force hybrid pads are much better than the CCS pads in my opinion on a geared rotation DA, but there is nothing wrong with the polishes or lsp choices. I was using SIP just this weekend on a Nissan Altima.
