LOL … Thats what I was figuring … Have you gotten your hands on a UDM yet? … Your more than welcome to borrow mine if you want to try it out

> Ok i wanna know if this will work.I was planing on washing my car with Meguiars gold class soap, then putting on meguiars#7, Then finishing the car with either #26 or gold class.Im trying to achieve a nice deep shine that will also be protected for decent amount of time but i dont want to risk damageing the paint in the process.Iv had people look at my paint on my GTP and they have all told me i probably dont want to do a heavy cut like #4 again.So would #7 help mask some of the scratches?if there is objections to my plan let me no.im always up for suggestions.

A 50/50 alch/water mix wipedown will remove any and all oils left behind from polishing. Oils will fill in scratches, making them appear to be gone, when really the oils just filled them in, and they will return.

I dont use/care to much for megs compounds. I use Menzerma/Pinnacle compounds, polishes, etc.

I would have to actually see your paint to give you the best advice. I would wash, clay, Menz IP with orange pad if its bad … or white pad if its just minor spots … follow with FP with grey/blue pad … then Pinnacle Souveran by hand and your car will look do deep you’d sware you could dive in!
