My time with the twins

Yea, I was having a moment there too! But alas, I mean the Klasse twins.



I don't have any before pics because 1) this isn't "click 'n brag" and 2) It's fairly new and in good shape.

It did it's 1st 12k as a fleet vehicle and is in real good shape, just has a little bit of brush marks - must have seen a few brush car washes!



- I washed with Megs gold class.

- No need to clay, had just done that a few weeks ago.

- PC/OP/white polishing pad on the hood only for the brush marks.

- AIO w/PC@4 using gray finishing pad (this paint was clean enough that I thought the softer pad would be fine).

- MF wipe down by hand. Applied AIO everywhere, including glass, lense covers and black plastic trim (some by hand) - everywhere except windshield. I was surprised at the dirt/grime that came off on the wipe down as it was a bit more than I expected.

Surface had a nice glow/shine after the wipe down.

- SG on/off by hand. Here and there had some tough spots to remove. Very sparingly used a homebrew Glanz with 3 parts distilled water to 1 part KSG.



Ok, frost white can't pop like a red or black, but there's reflection here.

Notes:

1) Had some scratches on the drivers side mirror that diappeared after the PC/AIO.

2) The homebrew SG Glanz seems to work very well. after another coat or two of SG (next washes) will use as a QD?Touch up at washes until winter sets in...UHG
