Thank you for the feedback. I will try out the TSP when I get a chance.

I don't know what to say then. But it didn't seem to keep you from doing a good job on the car.

Since I highly doubt that paint is single stage, you are not looking at oxidation. Your pads are turning black because the paint is still dirty. This could happen from not completely cleaning the paint during the claying process. Another possibility which I think is more likely is that you did...

The title says it. What sort of cleaning chemical should I use? Has anyone done this?

Thank you for the feedback. My order with opti-bond is on it's way.

Nice work. How did you go about cleaning the crevices of the steering wheel controls?

I am getting ready to make a purchase and want to try a new tire dressing and wanted to know the differences between Optimum's Tire Shine and Opti-Bond. They say that they are both water based and they cost the same if bought by the gallon. Is the main difference that Opti-Bond is a gel? For...

You can polish right away but you need to wait 60 to 90 days before putting on any kind of protection because the paint needs to out-gas. Warmer weather will make this go faster. If you wax or seal it to soon, it can cause the paint to bubble.

Why didn't you take the tape off? I think it would have been easier to tell the differences without it.

That about sums it up.

The paint needs to breath for 90 days which means no wax or sealant. The paint should be cleaned regularly however.

Get more microfiber towels. You would be surprised how easy it is to find yourself in need of extras in the middle of a job/project. And I would not even think about getting Souverän until you have the necessary prep-work products like a clay bar and a few polishes. Have fun.

Fantastic work as always. The next car you're working on is silver? You're joking right?

Autogeek.net can I have a FREE DeWalt DW849!

The problem with that "Phone" is that women will never answer it!

I would just detail it my self. But I would get on their case about the door ding.

Now that's my kind of cleaning tool!

I agree, the HD Guzzler is a nice towel. The one thing I don't like it for though is rinse-less washing. When I use ONR, I like the feel of a more flexible towel (i.e. normal WW's).

Happy Easter! I think there needs to be a sale to celebrate :D!

Looks like the hood could be original single stage paint.
