Decided to break out the porter cable for the second time on Saturday morning.
My first time was a trial section on thw trunk of my g8 where I did 2 passes ssr 2 passes shr and 1 pass fmp. About 95% corrected which was good enough for me.
Back to saturday. Had a wedding in tbe afternoon so decided to clean up the cars in the morning. I started with a two bucket wash, followed by a detail spray and waterless wash towel dry down. This paint was rough, could just here the grittiness on the towel. Then proceeded to clay a portion of the hood. Removed a lot of grit.
Here is a bare paint before shot.
Then proceeded to test with shr. I wasnt satisfied so I moved on to ssr. Did 3 passes. Then 3 more shr passes followed by 1 fmp.
Here is an after shot. Id say 60% correction.
So..my issues could be that the 05 altima simply has rock hard clear and needs much more attention or the direct sunlight really lowers the
performance of polishing. What are your thoughts?
This is whay I am up againsy once I get my technique down. Maybe ill have to wait for the new producy release which may have deeper cutting abilities.
