Best process for UPP?

Do you think Klasse AIO then UPP x2 would be a good combo? I tried RMG then UPP on one panel today using the PC and is was very slick - just trying to get the best base for UPP?



that sounds good too. prior to using 1z MP I used AIO as a base for UPP :) looks really good, with even better durability.
 
OK - I used RMG and UPP for the whole car today, and it came up great! I prepped the paint with SSR2, Scratch-X, etc. and also used the new Sonus ultra-fine clay and lube for the entire roof, came up glass smooth, so worked very well. I then applied RMG to half the car, then UPP - while the UPP was bonding, I did the other half of the car with RMG, so by the time I was done I could buff the first side - I let it sit for 30 mins before I buffed it off.



I used the PC on speed 4 with a Megs polishing pad for the RMG and a finishing pad for the UPP, all buffed off by hand with Megs Supreme Shine MF towels. Here's some pics:

The roof after clay, RMG and UPP - no swirls or marks at all - I love it!

Very sharp reflections!

Thoughts? RMG is very easy to use, on/off with minimal effort and seemed to deepen the colour of my car. UPP is so easy to use, unlike Klasse SG it buffs off by hand very easily, the longer you leave it the easier it seems to come off. The surface feels very slick indeed, more slick than anything else I've tried yet - I like it ALOT for it's ease of use and results.



The new Sonus ultra-fine clay and Glyde lube is very, very good - I did my entire roof no problem (in 4 sections) and it came up glass smooth, the Glyde lube is very nice to use too. My roof was only a little bit rough but it came up really smooth, you could see what came off on the clay!



Overall RMG, UPP and Sonus ultra-fine clay get big thumbs up from me - they all work great!!!
 
Cool - I've ordered some 4* UGE spray from PakShak to maintain the UPP. The new Sonus detailing spray could work well with it too.
 
After 3 days of heavy rain the UPP is doing a great job, rain just will NOT stay on the paint! I used the new Sonus Detailing Spritz on one side of the car before the rain came last week, and both sides look the same, slickness feels the same (if anything the spritz side might be slightly slicker) - so this new spritz seems to work well with UPP, thumbs up from me.
