time its all down to dedication and advanced skiving techniques

Dude - you won't get a shine worth a $hit unless you start at the beginning......

**** BUY A PORTER CABLE POLISHER ****

1) Paintwork renovation treatment, if required

2) Klasse All-In-One

3) several layers of Klasse Sealant Glaze

4) final coat of Pinnacle Souveregn carnauba wax

if you are waxing - you've finished.

if its a good carnuba wax - get a layer down every 24 hours is about the best you can do.

dont polish or anything else, unless you want to start again.


Mike had it on the button - start properly, and get the surface prepped first.

clay, swirl removal and polish would be a good start



wheres the rest of the pics btw?
