Re: Matte finish

Pretty much all you can do is wash with something like Gold Class soap.

Re: Matte finish

i to use 100% meguiars, however, they do not make products for matte finishes. as far as i know swissvax is the only one who does. just don't let him screw up the finish!

Re: Matte finish

First slap him for buying a matte finish vehicle........ Second, wash as you would a regular vehicle. Wax it with Meguiars express wax, D156 or #135.

Re: Matte finish

Matte or Satin Finish Paint - do not polish, wet-sand or use conventional wax or use an automatic car wash that uses hot wax in the final rinse, as the flattening agents that cause the matte appearance will become ‘levelled ‘The textured finish is accomplished by a diffused 30 degree reflection and are retained very close to the clear coat surface. By levelling the surface the light will be reflected evenly and result in a ‘shine’.

Use a machine polisher and an ultra soft, zero abrasive cut (100 PPI) foam pad) with a mild chemical paint cleaner it will remove surface marring and leave it satin matte. Use a clear polymer, the key is to add surface protection and depth without adding gloss.
