Newbie with a White Miata

[AlmightyMoonPie]

I have a newbie question, My PC will be here on Sunday and I plan on taking on my wifes pride and joy her 97 white Miata. I have read where the Mazda white paint is very hard. The car has been waxed every few mths but it does have some swirls and spider webbing. My plan of attack is to:



1. Wash with dawn

2. Clay

3. Polish with Pinnacle Advanced Swirl Remover with orange pad then white pad

4. Polish with Pinnacle Swirl remover on white pad

5. Pinnacle Paint work Cleaning lotion

6. AIO

7. SGx2 (24 hours appart)

8. Pinnacle Paste Glaz x2

9. Finally CM



My questions are?

Will steps 5 and 6 be over kill since both are cleaners

Would it be better to replace step 4 will SSR1

I also Have the Wolfgang Sealent, is it better than SG on white?

Any suggestions would be appreciated



Thanks to everyone for all the great information and making this a very addicting hobby.

Your process sounds great. I think you can effectively skip step 5 since you are doing AIO and I'd stick with SG for now. Don't forget to take pics!!
