Default Re: What did you do to your Crossfire today?

Today I tried a product for the first time. Getting olderish makes lots of paint care steps take too long so I went looking to cut a step if possible. Meguiars Ultimate compound. SAY WHAT! Yep but don't let the name scare you. It's a hair more aggressive than Scratch X 2.0, 205 and No. 9 but way less the No. 2, 105, 85, 84, 83 etc. So after a good wash with lots of bubbles and drying with my faithful waffle towels, it was time to get down to business. I used Meguiars Professional Clay (mild) with detail spray. Then I loaded the Porter Cable with an orange pad. The Meguiars Ultimate works real quick. A 1 x 1 foot test section made my day. Great results without having work slow. I had some marks from hitting a drum and a few cones on the door and some scuffs on the rear bumper from a yellow Porsche and they went bye bye with no fuss. The drivers door had tons of micro scratches. Don't drive through a rain storm and use detail spray to clean up the mess like me. All gone. I'm real impressed. So how did my race car turn out?
