First I`d like to introduce myself. My name is John, I have a red 1996 Volvo 850R sedan and live in San Francisco, CA.
I`ve been following these forums after noticing swirling on most of the panels on my car. (Probably due to taking the car to local car washes when I didn`t have a place to wash it myself.) Now I have the garage space and a place to wash my car, so I`m finally ready to give my car the attention it needs.
I placed an order with CMR last night to get the 15% discount.
Here is what I ordered:
-Pinnacle Detailing Kit, Souveran (Bodywork Shampoo, Paintwork Cleansing Lotion, Souveran, and Crystal Mist)
-Klasse Concours Kit (All-In-One and Sealant Glaze
-Wheel Care Kit
-3M Swirl Mark Remover
-plenty of MF towels and applicators
I already have a Mother`s Clay Bar kit but am waiting for the arrival of all the new stuff to begin the big job.
My plan is to do this:
1. Wash car with Dawn soap
2. Clay Bar with Showtime
3. Wash with Pinnacle Bodywork Shampoo
4. Polish with the 3M Swirl Mark Remover on a terry applicator
5. Clean paint with Klasse All-In-One on a damp MF applicator
6. Put 2 coats of Klasse Sealant Glaze on with a 2 hour interval between coats using dry MF applicator
7. Top it all off with a coat of Pinnacle Souveran on a MF applicator
8. Clean wheels with AIO and apply a coat of SG
Any comments?
I`m a bit unclear if I should try attacking the swirl marks before the AIO or after.
I`ll borrow a digital camera to show the before and after. I can`t wait to start!
Thanks
