    They required about 3 passes with the D300/MF. Surbuf and M105 took two passes.

    No wonder your client wanted this shine locked with Opti Guard.

    Those car washes can really inflict some nasty stuff.
    Thanks Greg!


    Yeah, those brush style washes will wreak havoc on your paint!

    Heavy pressure was used with slow arm speed. The video was sped up 4x to shorten the length of the video.

    For maxium defect removal, heavy pressure and slow arm movement gives me the best results. On this paint it corrected ver quickly, which was why I decided to capture a test spot. Not all paints will react the same and the depth of the defects themselves will play a role too. I was able to get about 90-95% correction on that test panel but there was a few deeper scratches left behind.
