Didn't get more pics unfortunately but here's the results now that I got around to dealing with the pics. I say that because I did this at the end of May actually. Procedure was as follows.........

1. wash with Dodo BTBM and Dawn
2. Clay with XMT Speed Clay
3. Polish with Wolfgang Finishing Glaze (not really a glaze, fine polish) and LC white flat pads and my PC 7424
4. Seal with Wolfgang DGPS and a blue LC CCS pad and my DA
5. Next day, 2 coats of Pinnacle SS II via LC CCS gray pad and my DA

Even though the Jeep was only about 5 months old the light polish gave the paint an extra pop that was missing from the factory. There were some deeper scratches that I will go back for in the fall with Wolfgang TSR and orange pads. These pics are after step 5 just after wiping the 2nd coat off.

Hood, my hand in there to give some contrast for the camera... (you can actually see that the Jeep really is green)

I've got a 2-door X. I got it looking nice early this summer, but I may have to try some of your products after those pics!

And yes, right from the dealer mine needed work as well.

Yeah I forgot to mention, the Jeep was built in January and I took delivery a week after it was shipped (ordered it) so I made sure to tell the dealer not to touch the paint. I drove it home with the shipping dirt all over it lol. There was just a clarity/shine that was missing from the factory that the polish brought out.
