  • Ultimate Compound=Wow factor

    My brother came home with this big scratch on his bumper after bumping into a yellow post this afternoon.. He was pretty bummed out about it, but I told him to give me a min. because I might be able to help with it..

      Regular people are always amazed at what just a little bit of UC on a microfiber towel can do to remove what seemed to be a huge scrape on their nice car. Lol.

        Nice save. I'm sure your brother was excited. I would recommend to put some wax or sealant on it to protect that area.

We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.

            Yea he was pretty amazed at how fast it all came off. I sprayed some UQW to finish it off.
            I washed that car about a week ago to get a better feel of it's current condition. It shines so dang much I couldn't even attempt to look for swirls in direct sunlight! Lol. I've heard swirls are hard to spot on silver paint but that was ridiculous.
            One thing I am certain of is doesn't have any wax protection at all. No beading or sheeting action. That car is 1 of the main reasons I'm strongly considering purchasing M205 over UP as I feel it might not need a compound step. [I'm hoping to place my order tomorrow so everything I need shows up in 1 shipment b4 the weekend]
            A good claying, polish & wax should make it pop and help keep it that way for a while.

                Definitely going to give the compound a try. I was worried at first to use it by hand but i realize now its not your traditional compound.

                  I did my whole car by hand with microfiber applicator pads 4 months ago and had good results. Try it.
