Thats the one you used the PwC and EX-p on? And you say that I should not worry about bonding right? Also, Can you/should you layer EX-p? Like UPP will it enhance after a few coats?

Yes, the Ford has the PwC and EX-P combo right now. It was also the test vehicle for the prototype version. Bonding didn't seem to be a problem with the prototype, so I'll make a leap of faith and say that the production version should be okay too. I'm no chemist. I just know that it worked pretty well for me. As always, your mileage may vary.

By the way, if you look at the hood and left front fender picture for the BMW, that's PP prep on the hood and VM prep on the fender. See how the PP is clear and bright, while the VM is very wet looking? I think I'm going to go edit my thread and add comments about what prep was used on which panels.

BTW, 2 coats seems to be enough for EX or EX-P.
 
VM is a glaze right? I would think that that would be a bonding issue too. I do everything by hand and from what I have read, PwC is easier than PP by hand. any experience with that?

I don't think VM neatly fits into any category. It can be used as a polish, a glaze, or an all-in-one type of product. This is my first use of the product. I became interested in trying it in combination with EX and EX-P after seeing some very impressive results obtained by ScottWax. I can offer no data about bonding issues between VM and EX-P at this time. Ask me again in a few months. :)

PwC and VM are both exceptionally easy to use by hand. PP requires a little more practice to get the best results. PP can also stain black trim a bit if you leave it on too long.
 
Dalton i believe durability comes from the first layer next to the paint, and everything else above it becomes sacraficial layers. EX-P seems to agree with wax and non-wax products without prejudice.
As AWD330 said it seems to change with what ever you put on or polish with first.
If you are looking for the clearest and longest lasting ability of the product , use Professional Polish first.
If you want a warm glossy look use PwC first or maybe just SSR1 which hasn't been a tested combo:eek
or if you go with the Pro method and you want more warmth, then add sopme EX or paste wax on top.
Everyone has their own idea of the perfect shine and all I can do is give you the instuments to achieve it, everyone must figure out the combo and uses they prefer best:dunno
 
Dalton, ProPolish is VERY liquidy. I applied to much and it was amazingly difficult to wipe off. You have to master the drops. Once mastered, I've heard it works wonders.

Fair enough steve. How much harder is PP than PwC by hand? Did you get my PM? I am ready to order

PP is a product that I really prefer to apply by machine. I've used PP by hand to do a panel or two without much difficulty, but I'd rather not do a whole car by hand. PwC is simple to use by hand.
 
I've used both by hand and by PC and the PC works best....of course I think the PC works best for everything.......especially on my full sized truck w/hard tonneau! LOTS of area to rub and my poor ole arms aint what they used to be.:hah :whine
