4)Clayed with Sonus grey and ONR 1:10 as for lube.

5)Meguiars #83 polish on white LC pad via UDM

6)swisswax cleaner fluid to remove solvents or silicone residue.

7)Collonite 476S for LSP (by hand)

8)PB trim restore in wheel wells for dressing.

Nice work, but did you really just finished with #83 as a final polish ? although the colour of your car doesn't really matter, a finer polish would have brought out better optics

I have never tried any other cleaners....all i can tell you:

-easy to remove excess

-smells like ass

SwissVax est chèr pour la quantité que nous avons. Mais le résultat est la et les cires tiennes très long temps comparé à bien d'autres marque. Il faut juste être prêt à débourser plus .







Et ne jamais finir avec un Meguiars #83 , il vas toujours manquer un lustre de finition quand il ne contient pas les mêmes huiles que un #82 ou un Menzerna FP MP ou bien d'autres... *tu*

[CelicaGTS]

^^^ tu vends les produits swissvax?

je serais interesse a prendre la cire concorso.

[CelicaGTS]

repost.. sorry

[Alanix]

Je ne veux pas les produit de la gamme SwissVax , Eshine a vendu pendant 2 mois les produits mais d'après moi ce que Zymol offrait était plus attrayant pour eux.



Tu peux commander de l'europe directement de la maison mère en france ou via les USA . Dans les deux cas attend toi à avoir quelques petits frais de plus surtout de l'europe. Mais leur services à la clientel est très très sympatique :bigup:

Its not the first time I do my car.

And for THIS particuliar color i didnt see any difference (after LSP) when i finished with a 83 or FPII.



Last weekend we did my friends 335. Its grey but a tad darker. 83 coulnt be used to finish, you could tell gloss wasnt to its fullest.
