super resin polish

[AKFM1]

what happens to the paint if you have just super resined the car but have no sealed it? i have done this but not able to seal it as work has called me in and need to drive it. thanks in advance

I often use SRP without a sealent after. Never had a problem

Apart from not being protected, nothing will happen to it.

Tell work you've not applied a sealant and thus can't come in!?

 

[JD]

Not that much of an issue as technically it does provide microscopic amounts of "protection" in the form of fillers.

If you've been called into work, once finished, come home, wash the car down as per usual and get some sealent on it. Your paint won't be that affected in such a short period of time.

It will cause a problem after anything more than a few days.

No doubt you'll be washing the fillers back off though.

 

[JD]

Exactly. So once washed, either SRP again and then seal (if your paint needs the fillers) or just seal if it doesn't. Like the Arch Gap Waggon (AGW™)

The arch gap doesn't need fillers! Just new paint! Lols!

Wot think?

cheers for the replies guys, finsihed work at 8 and was still light enough to put a layer of wax on. just thought after the polish the paint is more easily scratched or something lol

 

[JD]

You washed it first of course?

 

[AKFM1]

erm no?! why did i need to?

 

[JD]

Where's that facepalm picture ...




Ideally buddy yes, because, if you think about it, any mud/dirt/grit/dust particles that were on the paint work, due to your drive to and from work, will have been swirled around your paint work as you applied and buffed off the wax

 

[Gally]

Flolsrplol!

 

[AKFM1]

i quick detailed it before i waxed it if that helps :S

 

[JD]

Yeah I'm sure that will be fine buddy, but just remember - quick washes/details are where marring occurs. QD is really only good for dust, rather than grime and dirt and you may have caused marring in the paint work.

Depends how anal you are buddy, but with a Black Gold, I would try and do all you can to avoid them!

 

[AKFM1]

yeh tell me about it, i cant stand having a black car, looking to change!! its too difficult to keep it looking nice. If u were closer id get u to sort my paintwork out lol

 

[JD]

Shame buddy; BGs are awesome once done and very easy to keep on top of. Plenty of post clients with BGs that keep them looking superb
