I am a super happy UPGP user, and I recommend a good three to four coats at least twelve hours apart. Finish it up with a good hand buff with a big fat thick MF.
BTW it looks awesome!! Good work!

Looks like you need to polish to make the UPGP look it's best IMO.
How do you suggest to polish it?

Just stick with the UPGP IMO.
Just a good firm buffing by hand. Remember big thick clean soft MF.

I already have the Ultima Autospa Buffing Towel, the Sonus Der Wunder Polishing Towels and the Blue Perl Buffing Towel. which one is the best for that job?
Some are applying upgp, then dwg, then upgp with great results:

I really like the Ultima Towel, it is super soft and it does a great job of bringing out that final gloss after UPGP.
Looks good, but not finished yet. As Knucklebuckett suggested, go for 2 more coats 12 hours apart and do a final buff. You can polish with Ultima Paint Prep Plus prior to applying the UPGP. This will bring out superior shine and clearness to the paint. The results will blow you away.

At least the shine looks better than those wheels...

Any of them would work well.

UPGP should be applied by hand with the enclosed MF applicator or another MF applicator of your choice. Apply lightly.

Oops, sorry, wrong product. It would depend on the swirl marks you have. If you are using a UDM and an LC pad I would apply it at speed 5 -6, starting with a white pad. If that does not provide enough correction move up to an orange pad. If using the DAS pads, start with the green and move up to the orange if needed.

yes it removes the PGP. it is the compatible prep step if needed for light correction before using PGP
