orange 04 GP

[fusion orange]

I didn't bother with before pics because this car is always kept spotless,only issues were a few scratches and moderate swirls.process went as follows;

interior-floor mats treated with Folex
megs leather cleaner/conditioner
megs interior QD
stoner's invisible glass in and out

exterior-tires and wells w/purple power 1.1
wash with Dawn
megs clay & QD
XMT 3 w/LC CCS orange (PC 6)
XMT 1 w/LC CCS white (PC 6)
XMT 360 w/LC CCS green (PC 5)
wash megs DC
megs nxt on & off by hand
Mothers chrome polish on wheels and exhaust tips
AA foam in wells and extreme gel on tires

Although it looks much better than it did,it's not 100%.I'd say I removed 80% of the swirls and all the minor blemishes,maybe I need XMT 4 on a LC orange or XMT 3 on a LC yellow,dunno.This is my first attempt at a full blown paint correction so any better ideas,critisism,ect.....let me have it,

Looks good. I think you could of skipped the XMT 1 and went straight to the 360 though.

beautiful first attempt. Using Lake Country pads, try XMT3 with orange and then again with white to break down any micromarring. If you find the durability of NXT lacking, but like the look, move to Megs #21.

thanks,I've always been a die-hard Megs fan but lately pondered going a different direction,I think I'm going to try DP Max Wax next as a LSP


and a better camera
