randyfox Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 As many of you already know, I just got a Flex from my awesome wife for Father's Day. What better vehicle to try out my newest weapon in my arsenal than hers? We bought it used from a private seller in January. With black paint with metal flake, scratches, etching from bug guts and bird bombs and of course your typical swirls, this was going to be fun! Before pics: Profile shot after Dawn wash. Not too bad, right? Au contraire mon fraire! Door dent and scratch: What on earth did they set on the trunk and continued to drag across it? Bird Bombs, bug guts and other general nastiness: No bueno! My work was going to be cut out for me. Let's do this. The results: What about that nasty trunk you say? Cool shine shot: Process: Strip Dressed all trim, tires and wheel wells for ease of clean up Claybar Flex polish - SSR with green pad - SHR with orange pad - FMP with white pad Sealed with MSS and black pad Brilliant Glaze Americana Rock on, shine on!

randyfox Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 Thanks! There are a (now) few minor scratches that I didn't get out. From reading another thread this morning it sounds to me like I need to try backing off the speed of the white pad with FMP to 4 and try that. I wish I saw that thread before, but oh well. I need to do minor correction on my 350Z soon, so I will try it then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
