  • Go ManGo PC Dual Action Polisher Fall Makeover (Pics!)

    The 2006 Dodge Charger Daytona R/T was washed to remove dirt and grime from its Go ManGo clear coat finish. Next the areas highlighted in yellow were cleaned, polished, and waxed using the Porter Cable 7424 dual action polisher, Meguiar's DeepCrystal System, on an orange cutting pad, and finished with a gray finishing pad.


    The Meguiar's DeepCrystal System consists of three steps:
    Step 1 = Paint cleaner safely removes light swirls and surface blemishes
    Step 2 = Polish creates a brilliant high gloss finish
    Step 3 = Caranuba Wax delivers brilliant shine and lasting protection


    I used the orange pad on speed setting 4 for Step 1, followed by a fresh orange pad on speed 5 for Step 2, followed by the white pad to apply Step 3, and finished with the gray finishing pad.



    Before:
    Nice, but needs more of a deep lustrous shine.




    Areas in yellow cleaned, buffed, and polished with DeepCrystal 3 Step system:




    Results:
    Wow, what a nice shine!




    That roof is like a mirror! I could do my hair in it.

        Mark, thank you for the Kudos. I love Meguiar's and the photos show that I am comfortable using them on this limited edition Go ManGo.

                  I used automotive masking tape to cover gaps, grooves, and decals.

                    Great looking ride. Those reflections are great. You really made the paint pop. Way to go.

                        I love the Charger! By the way I am a fellow MOPAR man. GOMANGO is a great color. I love all the old school colors - Top Banana, Sublime, PlumCrazy, etc, etc.

                          You can really tell the difference. It is more of a true vibrant and wet looking color.
