Default Question for DouglaS2000

I noteced you said that you used RaceGlaze for the finish on your car. I looked them up and was wondering exactly which product it was you used to get those results. Excellent job I might add. Those are some very nice pic's.

Thanks for the compliments..

There were a few steps involved in making the paint look good. First, I used some Meguires Clearcoat Body Scrub to remove any contaminants like sap, bug droppings, etc. Then I used 3m Perfect-it to remove any of the surface scratches and to clean out any deep scratches. After that, I applied the RaceGlaze. Extremely easy to apply and remove but requires higher maintenance over most polymer waxes. With every wash, it appeared to deteriorate rather quickly.

I have now switched over to Klasse sealant. I used the same 2 steps I had done before but this time, I applied Klasse for the final job and it is outstanding. Same shine as the RaceGlaze but more resilient to swirl marks. It's also anti-static and generates very little dust when buffing it out. The paint also stays clean longer due to the anti-static properties of the polymer.

After several carwashes, the paint still feels as smooth as silk..
