I was due for a spring detail on my own vehicle. As winter was pretty long this year in New York area I delayed the project until last week.
BMW X3 Deep Sea Blue Metallic
Wash: Optimum No Rinse (ONR) Wash & Shine
Clay: Hi-Tech Magna sponge
Prep: Ultimate Polish Pre-Wax Glaze
Flex XFE7-15, Meguiar's 6" yellow polishing disc (DFP6), speed 4
Rupes LHR 75E, Meguiar's Soft Buff 2.0 4-inch yellow polishing pad (W8204), speed 4
Wax: Ultimate Paste Wax
Rupes LHR 75E, Meguiar's Soft Buff 2.0 4-inch black finishing pad (W9204), speed 2
Exterior trim: Ultimate Black
Tires: Ultimate Black Tire Coating
Wheels: D140 Wheel Brightener
Glass: Perfect Clarity Glass Cleaner
Perfect Clarity Glass Care Kit (Glass Polishing Compound applied by Rupes LHR 75E with Meguiar's W8204 buffing pad)
The vehicle's metallic paint always responds very well to Ultimate Polish treatment, and so it does to M205. I was happy with the final result as the high gloss came back to it.
I prefer paste version of Ultimate Wax. It feels more like applying M16, but with much easier wipe-off.
It was my first application of Ultimate Black Paint Coating. The spray version makes it very easy to apply. The product left the tires in just right amount of gloss: not too high, not too dull. I hope for much longer protection period than other products offer.
I plan to apply Ultimate Fast Finish on top Ultimate Wax within next couple weeks. That combo should leave the paint well protected for the summer time. In fall there will be winter preparation project.
