Hey all, I had the chance to get my hands on a co-workers Camaro SS this weekend. This is the first car I have put a DA on apart from mine. Below will be a few pics of the before and after. This process took about 7 hrs. I am open to all tips and recommendations. Looking into a proper swirl finder right now as well.

Products used:

Meguiars Car wash with DAWN
IPA
Clay Bar
HD Cut (Impulse buy. Looking for new recommendations carried here for cut )
Menzerna SF4000
Chemical Guys Butter Wet Wax
Chemical Guys v07

on to the pics!!

After correction on test spot. This area was passed over again with a heavier cut pad because it wasn't up to my liking.

Wow Jace. I am thoroughly impressed with your first job. Keep up the good work buddy. That paint is looking amazing.

You know my recommendation for compound. Menzerna FG400.

Thanks Mike!! That's what it was!! I was just trying to remember. I will add that to the cart along with the swirl finder.

Thanks everyone. :) The Menzerna SF4000 is so easy to work with. Definitely a plus for me. I can't wait to try the 400.
 
Sweet ride. Menz FG400 or Megs M101 would be my choices for compound as well.
 
Great job!!

On a side note, whoever drywalled your garage should give you your money back lol
