Kit Question

[kovalchuk71]

I was reccomended the Mezerna ceramic kit for my Benz, but I have a question. If my car has been re-clear coated (Fender bender), should I still use the ceramic or should I not?

It will work, just be sure that the paint is cured before polishing and waxing.

How long should I wait? Its been about 5 weeks.

It should be good to go.:buffing:

What kind of polisher are you using and what's in the Menz kit?

Sweet. Im using a PC 7424 and Im planning on getting the ceramic car show kit unless there is something "better" or more effective? Im a college student, so I am not made of money There are just so many kits and I dont know what Im looking for.

Link to kit:
Menzerna polishes for ceramic clear coat paint, Porter Cable 7424 dual action buffer, Nano polish, super intensive, Lake Country pads, Show car kit

The polishes look ok, but the 6.5" pads are too big for the pc. Get a kit with 5.5" pads, even 4" pads are good. Everything depends on the condition of your paint. Any pictures?

Usual time is 60-90 days.

I find the ceramiclear polishes to work equally well on non-ceramic based clearcoats. The do however offer IP and FP if you prefer the non-ceramic equals.

Should I use ceramic polish even though my car was re-clearcoated? Also, will I be able to get the swirls out even though it was re clear coated?
