What would you do if you had just half a day to restore car's paint ?
I decided to go the old known way - DA Microfiber Correction System. To speed everything up even further I used it with Flex 3401 forced rotation dual action polisher.
1. Wash - Nomad 2 Go + Optimum No Rinse;
2. Clay - consumer clay bar 50g + Quik Detailer;
3. Clean/ Prep - D300 Correction Compound, 6" microfiber cutting disc, Flex 3401 Speed 3.0-3.5;
4. Polish/ Protect - D301 Finishing Wax, 6" microfiber finishing disc, Flex 3401 Speed 2.0-2.5 .
Tight areas cleaned/ polished/ protected with D300/ D301 and 4" LC Hydro Tech buffing pads: tangerine (polishing) and crimson (finishing).
Exterior trim - Ultimate Protectant;
Wheels - Gold Class All Wheel Cleaner;
Tires - Endurance Tire Gel.
Using forced rotation dual action polisher with DA MF Correction System requires some technique adjustments: less down pressure and slower machine speeds.
Arm speed has to be slow for defect removal - around 1" per second.
Another very important detail is not to use too much product, with DA MF System actually less is more. I've started with too much compound on the disc, clogged the surface and had to remove it form paint and disc. After that initial misjudgment everything went smoothly. The final results were very good with 90%+ defect removal and sagnificant gloss restoration.
