[QUOTE="AdamsPolishes, post: 1295834, member: 10587"] Here's a post with advice and tips for polishing and coating: [URL]https://www.fordraptorforum.com/posts/1225425/[/URL] Like Crash mentioned, do the iron decon before the claying. I would always recommend a minimum two-step paint correction before applying a [URL='https://adamspolishes.com/shop/exterior/coatings/adam-s-ceramic-paint-coating-kit.html']ceramic coating[/URL]. Use [URL='https://adamspolishes.com/shop/exterior/polishing/adam-s-paint-correcting-polish.html']Correcting Polish[/URL], and then follow with [URL='https://adamspolishes.com/shop/exterior/polishing/adam-s-paint-finishing-polish.html']Finishing Polish[/URL]. The [URL='https://adamspolishes.com/shop/exterior/polishing/adam-s-paint-correcting-polish.html']Correcting Polish[/URL] will remove any swirls or other imperfections, and the [URL='https://adamspolishes.com/shop/exterior/polishing/adam-s-paint-finishing-polish.html']Finishing Polish[/URL] will really bring out the gloss and depth. If you were to use only [URL='https://adamspolishes.com/shop/exterior/polishing/adam-s-paint-correcting-polish.html']Correcting Polish[/URL] (or similar) in a one-step correction, then you will not have the same level of gloss and depth. If you were to use just [URL='https://adamspolishes.com/shop/exterior/polishing/adam-s-paint-finishing-polish.html']Finishing Polish[/URL] (or similar), you would be polishing much, much longer to remove swirls and imperfections, as it has very little cut. Do not use a [URL='https://adamspolishes.com/shop/exterior/polishing/adam-s-one-step-polish-8oz.html']One Step Polish[/URL], or another brand of "All in one" type products. These typically have some sort of protectant in them, which you would not want on your paint prior to applying a [URL='https://adamspolishes.com/shop/exterior/coatings/adam-s-ceramic-paint-coating-kit.html']coating[/URL], and cannot typically be removed with a quick wipe-down. Also, our [URL='https://adamspolishes.com/shop/exterior/polishing.html']pads are color-coded to the correct polish type[/URL], so you don't have to remember which pad to use. [/QUOTE]
