Time for new combos....

Today I took a couple of hours to once more try to get 'that look' from the hood of my Volvo. Also, I was bored with the treatment I had there, starting last October or November, 2xAIO, 3xSG, 2xUPP and more recently 2xSouveran (which dried white on all rock ships, making them very visible :mad: ).



So, back to today, after qd'ing the hood, and claying using FI as lub, I cleaned it with 1Z acrysol to remove whatever was there.

Then I used the rotary, menzerna ip and a polishing pad, i did all the hood.



Next I changed to a finishing pad and used menzerna FP on all of the hood, again.



Great looks after these 2 steps, as most already know , but it lacked deep and shine, it was very clear tho.



Last prep step was with the PC, a finishing pad and the PO85U Menzerna FP. I applied to all hood then went back and removed.



This was the look I was looking for, definitely, very glossy, deep and crispy shine.



As a last step, I applied WG Sealing to half the hood, and, as said before by others, it goes very easy and after 20 minutes removed very easy also, tho that oily feeling/look was there.

What did it add? Slickness, that's about it.



On the rest of the hood I'll use EX-P as soon as it arrives and maybe Z5.
 
Yea, at the end of the month a couple friends and I are going to detail our cars for the coming spring, and plan on using IP and FP before going to Z-5 and Z-2. My friend uses autoworks stuff, so we'll see if I like that any better or not. However, what is that other FP you mentioned...obviously something that you only get over there?
