[QUOTE="Toxix, post: 130017, member: 3156"] Since we're posting some shiny cars here I figure I'd put up my ride. This car has been parked outside 24/7 now - Sitting and being driven in the continuous rain, snow and then baking in the sun while I work on my clients cars in the garage. Still looks good after 2+ months of not being washed. And since we're posting steps, I'll post what was done on my vehicle: [B]Thorough Wash[/B] - Mix with All Purpose Cleaner to help strip off any old waxes and sealants [B]Claybar[/B] - All painted surfaces + glass + lights are thoroughly claybarred to remove surface bonded contaminants [B]Iron X[/B] - Helps remove baked on iron deposits in paint [B]Rinse and Dry[/B] - Thorough rinse to remove all clay lubricant, Iron X followed by a hand dry [B]Paint Correction[/B] - All painted surfaces conditioned and corrected with Menzerna PF2500 followed by Menzerna SF3500 for optically perfect paint [B]Panel Prep for Coating[/B] - Using Feynlabs Panel Prep removes all polishing oils, silicones and grease to all a perfect, 100% bond to Ceramic Coating [B]Feynlabs Ceramic Plus 5 Year Ceramic Coating Install[/B] - All painted exterior surfaces coated in Feynlabs Ceramic Plus 5 Year [B]Cure [/B]- Let the coating cure for a bit, usually overnight and then I'm good to go I decided that I wanted to track this car more than I wash, drive it more than I washed it and having the ability to leave it outside without being concerned about my paint getting trashed. Doesn't look too bad, yeah? [ATTACH=full]15940[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
