1 ) wash with dawn



2) claybar



3) wash again with dawn



4) pc 7424 + LC WHITE + Perfect It- III Machine Glaze



5) pc 7424 + 2nd LC WHITE + P21S GEPC



6) Zaino Z-2 ?? by hand ??





The car is a BLACK 2003 A4 Cab. It has very minor swirls. Also in my arsenal I have DACP, IHG, 3m SMR, Megs #7, Zaino Z-5 Z-7, blitz wax.



All suggestions or comments are greatly apperciated!
 
Personally I wouldnt wash again with dawn after the clay. I would rinse the car off with water, but then Id move straight onto drying and then onto prep.



now the weathers starting to perk up, how about a blitz topper over the zaino ?

i was thinking of topping the zaino with blitz. i thought zaino and wax didnt mix well?!
 
Topping Zaino with wax is 100% optional. My personal advice to this is to just stick with the Zaino alone for a while, so you get accustomed to its appearance and behaviour over time. See how you like it for a while. Then, if you get bored, top it with a pure wax if you feel like it. Many people have tried this.



I would also just rinse and dry the car after claying. Other than that, the plan is sound (although I am not 100% sure about the strength of PI-III MG) and you have other products like SMR and DACP available as "backup" products. Hopefully you have some yellow pads too if you need them.



Be sure to try step 4 on a section first and see how it goes before attempting the whole car or the next step. Good luck!

Thanks for you advice. I apperciate it! I will try step 4 on a small section first to see how it turns out. I really dont want to use a yellow pad unless I need that aggressive of a pad. Ive read a few horror stories on here how ppl used a yellow when they didnt need to. The yellow caused them hazing , so IM going to stand clear of yellow unless its needed.



THANKS AGAIN
