I washed with Dawn, to strip it. I then followed with Pinnicle's Yellow Poly-Clay.
I wanted to try Wolfgang's WGPS on this color (Granite Mica). I was hoping to get a nice pool of metallic flakes. I used DGPS Spray, on the hard to reach places. I used my polisher and a Lake County Blue Finessing pad, for initial application. WGPS created a nice "pool" effect (hell of a refection). I was hoping for more flake "popping", but it wasn't quiet there. I love DGPS, its one of my favorites.
I used Optimum Opti-Bond Tire Gel, to dress the tires. Only one coat applied. I'm impressed with this stuff. I've had a bottle for a while now, but hardly used it. We picked up my wife's car just a couple of weeks ago. I've been using Opti-Bond, since its first wash, in our possession. I used it a couple of times on my car, but felt it seemed too lose its luster, rather quickly. Since applying it to her tires, it's been retaining that shine well. Even when it rained a couple of days, it still held up.
I waxed the wheels, with Wheel Wax. I figured since the rims were spotless, this would be a perfect time to starting applying wax to them. I thought I would start with Wheel Wax. Application was easy. Buffing off, was relatively easy. Don't let it dry for to long. I applied only one coat. I later read that two coats were recommended on the front wheels. For optimum results.
I used Wolfgang Plastik Surface Sealant, on the lights. This stuff is a breeze to apply, and remove. I've only started using it, so I'm not to sure yet on the durability.
Anyone notice the reflection of the Poorboy's sticker from my Window
