UPP - First time user

[nj_z71]

I applied 2 layers of UPP this weekend and I am amazed by the results. I used the cleaner first and then 2 layers of UPP (waiting 24 hrs between each).

I do a lot of driving and my paint takes a beating, especially the hood. Usually a paint cleaner is not enough. I have never used clay. Will claying remove all layers of UPP?

I never thought Silver could shine so much.

You can't go wrong with UPP...Its one of the best imo.

That third pic looks really wet.

Claying will take some of the UPP off. I guess it depends the severity, but since you have never clayed I would say it will take a good amout of UPP off, especially on the hood area but not so much on vertical surfaces like the doors.

Any recommendation on clay? Locally I can get Mother’s or Clay Magic.

I don’t take it off. The bug shield sits away from the hood. Nothing touches the paint and I can get my hand behind it. It’s easy to take on and off; 5 screws, on and off in under a minute with a power screwdriver.

Thanks for all the compliments, but I can’t take any credit for it. The stuff is so easy to apply and remove that I never even broke a sweat. The only thing that sucks is you have to wait 24hrs for the next application. I could easily apply 2-3 applications in an afternoon.

The pictures don’t really pick up the metallic. The color is called “silver birch metallic” & the metallic looks amazing after applying the UPP.

If it only would stop raining for longer then 3 days.
