2013 VW Jetta Paint Correction and Opti-Coat

[ec90]

Here is a 2013 Tornado Red VW Jetta paint correction and Opti-Coat 2.0 application. This was my first go at using Opti-coat and application was pretty straight forward and easy. This car only had 3000 miles on it


Process
Rinseless wash with ONR and APC to strip any previous waxes or sealants applied by the dealer
Nanoskin fine grade clay
FG400 with Meguiar's MF pad after trying Optimum Hyper Polish, HD Polish, and Menz PF2500)
Eraser Wipedown
Opti-Coat 2.0 Application


Quite a few scratches and RIDs

​

Usual scratches and swirls

​

And of course it wouldn't be complete without lazy dealership detailers putting wax everywhere

That looks great. I have found Menz FG to be my go to compound when work needs to be done. Looks like it served you right, the VW looks awesome!:rockon
