Getting my car back from the Panel Shop after getting the drivers door skin replaced and Re-sprayed along with the rest of that side of the car, I’m told to blend in the metallic paint with the other panels.

The car is due for a detail but I know new paint needs time to breath before polish and wax is applied to seal the paint.



How long do you guys recommend before ~

1.Dawn Wash

2.Mothers Clay

3.Dawn Wash

3.Meg No.7 Polish (should leave this out on the newly painted panels?)

4.Meg No.26 Wax



Or can anybody recommend a change in product use or order?.

I would prefer the use of polymer sealant but Klasse and Meg No.20 is not available in Melbourne Australia.



Cheers
 
I just had some minor paint repairs on the drivers door and hood of my M5 so the clear coat for the entire panels was redone. The person who did the work is the best I have ever seen, he even matches the orange peel to the other panels! He recommended that I wait 30 days before I use any waxes or sealants on the resprayed surfaces. He said this is to insure that all the solvents have had a chance to escape.

I will wait 60 days to be safe.

The body shop that has done alot of my paint work told me I should wait 7 weeks. You should be fine in 60 days.
 
No waxing for 60 days??? :scared







That's almost as bad as the premise for that new movie 40 Days and 40 Nights...



...almost
 
i just got one of my cars back from the paint shop for painting one of the quarters some a-hole decided to run in too and leave or key. Anyways, they told me 60 days for the paint to fully cure
 
Black Infinity G35. Pretty tore up, but no match for DA Pads and M105! LOL! Finished off with Meguiar?s Finishing Wax.

WOW!!!
What a difference. That was night and day. That Infinity was an absolute mess, and it looks like the new system took care of it with no problem.

Great job Nick!
 
Hey Nick , are there any cars left in Dallas that you haven't detailed yet ? J/K. Looks like you have been keeping busy. Nice turn around on this and all the others you have posted lately. Glad to see you have mixed it up a little with a few different compounds and LSP's.Keep up the great work. Paul S
 
Nick the results are just awesome . Just wondering why you went with 105 instead of the compound that is made to use with the new system . Just looking for some insight on the process . Was the paint to soft or just didn't remove the swirls . Thanks

Just like any other process, sometimes the compound doesn't work well with the paint. Honestly, I prefer to use M105 with the new pads. I find it to cut extremely well, plus it finishes down incredible!
