  1. I am getting ready to work on a neglected Explorer and I expect it will take several days to complete the paint correction and polishing process. There are scratches everywhere and I am fairly new to paint correction and polishing. I intend to work slowly, panel by panel until done.

     
    When I come back in the morning to continue work, do I need to do anything to the next panel before beginning? While it is in the garage I am concerned about dust or pollen settling on the surface overnight.
     
  2. Hello from Wisconsin.

     

    I started posting in other forums and and realized I never did an intro post, so here it is.

     
    I detailed cars in my parents garage as a summer job when I was young. It was a great summer job and I got to briefly drive some really nice cars - Corvette’s, Camaro’s, Porsche, Mercedes, etc.  More recently I used Zaino products and then stopped detailing completely about 6 years ago.
     
    I recently picked up a car that I wanted to take extra special care of so I started looking around at my product options. I discovered Adam’s via a post on the BenzWorld forums and started watching videos and reading the forums.  The products looked great and the community in these forums was amazing. I felt comfortable with the products as well as the ability to get help with any issues as I worked my way back into detailing.
     
    I placed my first order with Adam's in early May.  My second order a week later, and another order over the weekend during the Memorial Day sale.  :) 
     
    I love the way the car looks now and I haven’t had time yet to get the swirls out of the clear coat.

  3. I have a flaw that I am not sure how to approach.  There is a discoloration at the bottom of the car near the gap between the two doors. I think it is due to water draining out of the front of the rear door after a rain, but I am not positive.

     

    It is a small area and curved so a machine can’t get in there.  Do I pick up Revive and use a microfiber applicator to try to get rid of this? 

     

    The car is Steel Grey metallic and no one can see it but me, but it is sure ticking me off.   :D 

     
    Thanks.
