Finish with metallic then waxpolish soft?

[jet_m3]

Or should I go from paint polish to waxpolish and skip the metallic Mike? I don't mind the extra steps, just want everything to come out perfect.

From PP to WP works just fine....New car look :xyxthumbs

We'll see what Mike recommends, but *I* always *THINK* I get a little better finish when I follow PP with MP. It's not really NECESSARY, but I do think it's worth the time and effort.

So both of you have used the wp soft? What are your opinions of it?

 

[imported_jgv]

I have used it a lot of times.

It's the product some car dealers use to prep new cars.

It gives a very clean shine, a new car look.

Works very well on black as it hides some blemishes.

It's easy to use too, apply to a panel, go apply to another panel, go back and remove from the first, and so on.



Here's a car where I've used it:

thanks guys, also:



Can you apply by hand with mf applicator?



If by machine, do you use white finishing pad or the black/gray non-cutting pad with the wp soft?

It works fine w/ a foam or terry applicator and/or PC w/ finishing pad. Polishing pad if you're using it as a *mild* one step product.

Last question,

Is it better to use a slower speed say 2 or 2.5 with a black finishing pad to appy the wp soft?

 

[imported_jgv]

It works, but there's no problem if you use regular 3-4 speed w/ WP. Or if you apply it by hand.
