The Menzerna Pad is quite firm, though I still think for sorting deeper marks a 4 inch spot pad is better for targeting individual marks. Carlack 68 is a chemical paint cleaner will do little to no defect correction. Cutting Pad and Poorboys SSR 2.5 or Menzerna Intensive Polish both work well...

I never rough the area up, just clean and degrease it well then build up the layers of paint so it stands just proud of the chip. Key is to build up the layers of paint then leave the paint a decent amount of time before wet sanding. Never bother with the lacquer either on small chips.

Heat it up, carefully peel off all that you can, clean up the rest with Autoglym Tar and Adhesive remover.

Said guide http://guidetodetailing.com/articles.php?articleId=27 2000 grit works fine, I use the Meguiars Unigrit Finishing Paper 3000 as it means the marks can be removed by hand if need be.

I did but had already told you what you asked here http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=239443&highlight=Powermax

Evening Alan ...

I had a booking form through the post for it, all RenaultSport models are accepted again into the collectors area. Sent mine off earlier today.

It is like the Aladdins Cave of products, there is one picture I circulation I believe.

I should really get an updated Picture lol! Very alike the Souveran in Looks, but about as durable as chocolate fireguard. Would go for Onyx over both the above.

If you have a PC, just use that and a 4 inch pad spot pad to sort the defects!

Waxes are good ...

Danger of paint burn is one thing, inducing holograms into the paint is another, I would think getting a prefect high gloss finish from it at the speeds it will run at will be difficult.

Tis good stuff.

Not using the wheelguard as it can not be layered as it contains cleaners, use the Poorboys or Swissvax Ones over EGP here myself. Both work really well. Was going to get some Jetseal as I know I will be pushed for time to re EGP mine before the FSC, but looking at them I may not bother...

Even if it is a spray on one, decant some into something and apply with a brush or spray onto a foam pad.

Polish with the above then IMO and seal with decent wax.

Should help ... http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=150375

Will make sure I have a look at it Giles.

Lusty there will be no PC action at the FCS, I won't even be waxing the thing let alone polishing it!

Like hell would I Lusty! You would be at the end of the list if there was one ... Gritty Sponge or worse ?

Drills a rule spin to fast even compared to a rotary. Not seen the kit so can't comment to much. Have seen them for scratch repairs would not like to do a whole car with one.

Just back from hospital now, passed out at work ;) lol No - never! Same as I would not let anyone else wash it even by hand. Dave at Rentech thought I was odd when I said please don't wash it.

I bet Lusty is doing a raindance for the FCS though.

*Fingers crossed the wages are in*

No discounts anymore.

Another vote for Shite. Poorboys Bold and Bright or Blackfire Long Lasting Gel

If you access to a machine polisher like it sounds you have, Polish it using Menzerna Range as needed: Intensive Polish Final Polish Finish Finish Are my staple collection. Wash the MFs in the Washing machine using liquid detergent and no fabric softener.

Some cracking pics - love this one :

*Serious mode* How is she protected ? - you just clayed it - Stripping it back to clean bare paint - waxed it now then ?

New user name MacCake ? Nice one - let me know Aperture goes been tempted here for a while.
