My products and process for exterior

Mark

Boy Racer
I thought I would list my products and proposed process for your opinions...

This is what I've got:
Menzerna PO85RD 3.01
Menzerna Intensive PO91L
Menzerna Final Finish PO106FA
Menzerna Finishing Touch Glaze
AG Super Resin Polish
AG Extra Gloss Protection
AG Ultra Deep Shine
Collinite 915
Megs Gold Class Shampoo
Autosol
Megs smooth surface clay packs
Zymol Cleaner Wax
Various other bits & pieces.

The process:

1. Wash with Gold Class, dry with Sonus Ultimate Drying towel.
2. Clay
3. Wash & dry
4. PC + Menzerna in the garage with halogens and brinkmann to check swirl removal
5. SRP
6. EGP
7. Collinite 915, possibly two coats

So, a few questions:

Is step 3 necessary, or can I go straight to the PC after masking up?
Is there any benefit to applying two coats of SRP or EGP?
What can I use the UDS for, if anything?

I'm also going to have a go on the interior with Sonus Cockpit detailer and gliptone cleaner & conditioner (bought from cleanyourcar :) ).
Which should be first? Exterior or interior?

Big thanks! :thumbsup2:
 
Good approach.

You can skip step 3 but it will ensure any contaminants dislodged by the clay is removed.

I wouldn't use the AG products. The Menzerna will have provided a better finish than either of those can provide. The SRP contains abrasives and fillers and they will undermine the finish you've achieved on the PC. All AG products have terrible durability IMHO and they would undermine the durability of the Collinite.

I would look for a sealant glaze between the polishing and waxing to maximise the protection.
