Osok Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Single stage should follow the same process as any other car. You will see color transfer onto your pads though. Shr+orange, fmp+white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vincenzo Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 If it's kind of old, be a little bit more careful. Otherwise, you're good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug123 Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 You will get color in the pads that you use on single stage paint, so those pads will be dedicated to cars of that color from now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveVY Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Single stage should follow the same process as any other car. You will see color transfer onto your pads though. Shr+orange, fmp+white Depending on the age of the paint... I would NOT start with Swirl & Haze Remover.... the paint may be too soft. I would want to start with the least aggressive. Fine Machine Polish or maybe even by hand with Revive Polish. The single stage paint should work very well with the cleansing properties of the Revive Polish.

07RS4 Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Single stage should follow the same process as any other car. You will see color transfer onto your pads though. Shr+orange, fmp+white I just finished up a 4 day transformation on a 1986 VW Rocco w/single stage paint, and just did the normal process as mentioned. But be cautious with the least aggresive method as previously mentioned. My pads pretty much came clean, but the paint transfer had me scared for about 30 seconds, until I saw the results....bling, bling. I used Flex Rotary and 3401, all with SHR and FMP...and of course the PC. I quickly relized the PC is the most versatile, and the 4" Focus pad kit is simply amazing. I will upload pics when I'm done organizing all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
