test spot success
now time to get after it
 
Man the paint on this thing is hella soft. Was getting micro marring after m205 and a blue B&S pad. Switched to a black pad and that did the trick.

I put 4oz. of Diablo gel & 2oz of grape Maxi suds
in 1/2 gal.water, made a slurry that I slapped on my wheels.
Worked well, gotta rinse well tho.
P.A. Glissante with Rapidwaxx as a drying aid, for paint.

Finishing up the Kia w 2 coats Kamikaze Miyabi. Nice 70 degree, low humidity morning. Easy 10 minute dwell Time, slick wipe off.

Very nice paint...not soft or sticky...Kia needs to show Honda and Subaru a few things about painting cars. This Optima is a very nice car overall...quite impressive.

Ready to remove at 10 minutes

Finished up the WRX today. Really enjoyed using Can Coat. Not bad for my first coating experience.
