First off I want to give special thanks to f1guy68 for his advice on reconditioning red paint. His post about the red BMW showed what could be done with the PC. Red BMW
My situation was similar except I thought I was dealing with CC failure not oxidation.
Here's the victim.
This is the experimentation phase:
On the left is MPPC and #80 Speed glaze.
Middle is MPPC alone.
Right is untouched.
Please note the bottle reflections (or lack there of) in the paint. I did do an alcohol test and found the MPPC side went back to old condition. The #80 test area maintained the polished look. All products were applied with the PC and polish pad. MPPC speed was 4 and a click. #80 was 5 and a click.
Drum roll please!!
This is the finished project.

The products used were
1. NXT wash
2. Quick Clay
3. MPPC
4. #80
5. Last touch detail spray
6. NXT topper (applied with PC set at 3)
This was only an exterior detail and mostly just the paint reconditioning. There were other flaws I will fix later. The client wanted the paint looking good. They weren't too worried about the other problems. As for the other problems, the pics won't show the water etching that remained. My main focus was fixing the most visible part of the vehicle to the driver.
I didn't use #83 DACP today to see what the #80 will do. I very pleased with how efficient #80 is. The quality of finish with #80 is also great.
What do you think??
I've already lined up three jobs after showing these pics just this afternoon.
