Clayed
#02
#80
NXT 2.0

I am thinking that i should not have used the #02 before the #80 as it felt like it polised more than anything. BTW its a black truck and the paint had alot of swirls and scrathes. It came out pretty good regardless

 

If i'm right, 02 has more cut than 80. If so, then your good.

 

#80 would have probably done the job by it self, then Nxt. Now get a bottle of #26 to finish it off. On my black 05 Ive got great results with #80,#21, and #26 or #16.

 

Yea I was kinda thinking that. I will have to give those a try next time. Also how come #02 and #80 dont wipe off easy. Is it something im doing wrong? I eventually began misting #34 on to take them off? Is this ok? Any better ideas like work it in better or what?

 

How was the weather? If it is humid out dont bother trying to detail your truck everything will dry instantly. Also when applying #80 and #2 all the work is in the application, as soon as you are done applying it remove it right away with a good micro fiber cloth. BTW what are you applying these polishes with?

 

Im using a G110. Yea it was a humid day and about 50 degrees. I ended up pulling it in the garage and turned the heat on and in about 20 minutes everything started coming off much easier, but i also was using a mist of 34 to help take it off. If i want the best results should i be using a cleaner wax after the clay or is the 80 a cleaner and polish?

 

The humidity was definitly your problem, you shouldnt need #34 to take #80 off. After clay use #80, that will help remove your swirl marks, you may need 2 passes with #80.(side note #205 is suppose to be better then #80 with the same cut, I will be trying this during my next detail) Next I would use a Polish, here is were I like to switch to Poorboys polishes (your choice) If you havent tried PB you will love it. Super easy to apply and even easier to remove.(once again after you apply a polish remove it right away) After this I would go with a sealer (#21) or even better Wolfgang 3.0 this is also very easy to apply and remove. After this wait 24 hrs and do your Wax. I like #16 and now started using Collinite 845. With these steps you will be very happy. This is my normal full detail. Ever time I do another detail I will switch to other products just to see how they work. Good luck.

 

Thank you for your help and I will definatly be trying a few of those product as well

 

No problem, there are a lot of people here that have some good input on different products.

 

Did you like #02?

 

#2 is one of those products that does the same work as #80 but not as good. I think it has a polish in it so it would leave more of a shine. I`ll tell you #2 and even better#4 is great for removing water spots off your windsheild and side windows. If you have decent clean glass #2 is good just to clean it up. If you have heavy spots that just wont come off #4 is exellent. Its going to take a little while to get everything off but when your done it will look brand new.

 

What process are you using on the windows? Pad, DA or rotary, etc? I think after this winter, i'm going to have to buff my glass.

 

For glass, use either a rotary or hand. You'll need to apply some pressure so a DA will not work too well. If by hand, use a terry cloth towel.

 

All I have is a DA thats why is took a little while but it worked. I was at the point I was going to replace my windshield and #4 cleared everything up. I tried it by hand and it didnt work. Ive tried so many other product I could have bought another DA.
