Hello all. I just bought a few supplies today to add to my growing collection.
I purchased AIO, UPP, and FPII. I was wondering the steps I need to apply are correct. I was thinking.

Wash
Clay
Wash
Now if I have swirls, would I use AIO before SSR1/2.5 or SSR then AIO?
FPII
UPP

I'm not to sure on a couple of the steps so thought I would ask the pros here.

Thanks for all your help.

Not a pro, but....
1. Clay
2. Swirl Removal
3. AIO
4. UPP
Would be my process.
What swirl remover would depend on how bad the swirls are. If you use SSR2.5, it seems that most feel you need to follow it with SSR1 to remove hazing. I have only used SSR2 and it didn't need to be followed with anything prior to being ready for the AIO/UPP.
I have no idea how to use the FPII since I have no idea what it is.:)
You are gonna love the results.

Thanks a lot Charles. The FPII is the Menzerna Final Polish II. If I use the SSR2.5, I will follow by SSR1.
 
please guys, i'm a NOOB, and these abriviations dont help. Please spell things out, i'd like to know what you guys use so i could buy some. :D
 
It seems like a secret language, huh? :)

AIO = Klasse All-in-One polish
UPP = Four Star Ultimate Paint Protection

While we're at it, a few others that come to mind...

UPC = Four Star Ultimate Paint Cleanser (UPC and UPP are AWESOME!)
SSR = Poorboy's Super Swirl Remover (1 = mild, 3 = aggressive)
DACP = Meguiar's Dual Action Cleaner Polish

Check out the sponsor links at the top left for more information.

Take care,

There is a thread with many of the acronyms explained here.
Anything you don't find, just ask and someone will help you.

In your steps, you are using the AIO for a base UPP and not so much for it's cleaning ability. The SSR1, and FP II are more of a final polish to finish off any fine swirls/scratches and add some "POP". In the case of SSR1, you will get a a glossier/wetter look. In the case of the FP II you will get a brighter, clearer "liquidy" look. In either case, the added light polishing step is a plus... at least in my opinion.

HTH

Anyhow, I would change your process as follows:

SSR2.5
FP II or SSR1
AIO
UPP
 
Thanks a lot for all the advice you post. Once I receive my goodies from teh UPS man, I will try these steps. Thanks again.
