Heres my new car 2013 Acura TL SH-Awd with the tech pack.

The color is called Graphite Luster Metallic

I didnt realize how bad the swirls where on this paint till I washed, decon, and clayed. For a brand new car it makes me question the dealerships wash techniques.

Well here is some pics of the exterior, I will get some good interior pics soon.

Since I am moving back to FL soon I took most of my detail supplies back and used what I had here.

First I applied Blackfire Total Polish and Seal with green LC pad, then I applied a coat of Blackfire Wet Diamond. Let the car sit overnight and applied a coat of Blackfire BlackIce and managed to drop my jar of Blackice, and cracked the pot and lost a good chunk of it:mad:.

Wheels and tires cleaned with Blackfire Eclipse tire cleaner then the tires got 2 coats of the eclipse tire gel and wheels got Blackfire Crystal Seal. Windows also got a treatment of BFCS.


Not the best shots, when I do a full correction ill get some good ones.





Still swirled but paint does a good job of hiding them.




















 
looks great Dhaval!

The swirls don't look too bad in the one picture you showed them. Are they worse in real life?
 
Looks fantastic - incredible reflection shots!

Thanks man:xyxthumbs:

Umm they are not too bad, but I am huge stickler when it comes to swirls. TPnS did a decent job but I ordered some MF cutting and the Cyan HT pads and the small bottle of M105.

Thank! :xyxthumbs:
 
Nice job. After seeing all these reviews I have decided to take he plunge on this wax!
 
Nice color for that car...

Kind of the norm for dealerships...


Spoke with a customer about her 2012 black Jaguar last Friday, as we talked about the swirls in the paint she mentioned she thinks the paint looks worse after a visit to the dealership for routine maintenance.

That's when I told here to never let the dealership give her car the "Courtesy Wash' and then explained why...


Kind of the hard fact of life in that if you want to avoid swirls you have to take ownership of the car wash process...
