Decided to do some detailing on the S today.

It need some minor paint correction and I wanted to try the new Menzerna Paint sealant...

Absolutely pleased with the end result!

Car really wasn't in rough shape to start, very minor spider webs in the paint and minimal random scratches, tried to take some pick but hard to do with the wrong lights and a silver car...

But I think the outcome speaks for it self... I also have to say I REALLY like the Menzerna Power Lock Polymer Sealant... I have NEVER felt a car that felt so soft and slick, taking it off after hazing was super easy car felt so SLICK! Certainly going to be using it again in the future!!!!

 

looks pretty good.
did car have wax on it before? if yes, why didnt you strip it before polishing?

 

Thanks, I am starting to get the hang of the Porter Cable and compound choices, I thought the first car I did looked good but this is loads better

The car had a base coat of Menzerna Cleaner wax and two coats of Adam's Machine Polish Wax. I wasn't sure if I should strip or not figured the compound would cut through the wax... I washed up the car with the Mequiers Gold Class and compounded right over it. It cut through the wax and cut the clear coat on the first pass to remove the spider webs. Very pleased. Where the scratches were a bit tougher I ran S34A w/ Orange pad, followed by the PO203 and 106FA
