[QUOTE="no1, post: 910223, member: 17732"] Yes i know there is one-step polishing but i wanted to get it as shiny as possible even it is DD . It had punch of swirls and scratches from stones that have came from tires, washing and what not. I have Rupes 21 with 125mm backing plate (5,5 pad) and mini , also was using their pads and polishes. Never had tried their pads and polishes but they seemed to work pretty well. My mistake was to do small areas like door in 4 areas, i think that i would have got same result by doing it in 2 areas. But like i mentioned i was doing it really carefully and in small peaces, cleaning the area each time after polishing it. This was first time for her so it had to be special moment ;) It is now swirl free, clean inside and outside and have only two scratches. Those are too deep me to take off, you can feel those with finger nail. All in all I'm really pleased for result and want to see how it holds for winter. I will ask from you since you seem to be Mr Shine here :) and thanks for sharing your story. It helped me to get next level of keeping her clean.[COLOR="Red"] [SIZE=1]---------- Post added at 09:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 PM ----------[/SIZE] [/COLOR] So basically same as mine :) Mine is different in two ways. First - i did glaze and then sealant. I don't know which one is correct :) Second - glaze, sealant and wax by hand. I also did whole interior detailing and that **** me like 3 hours. But man I'm still not able to do it in 8 hours ;) Maybe if i practice next two years. [/QUOTE]
