Do your AU falcon's top exterior moldings (above side windows) look splotchy, brown and dull
My new product, REFLOW will quickly and easily, dissolve UV damage and carbon buildup on them and bring them back to a light to mid satin black finish To enhance the finish and protect the moldings, apply my other product called "POLYMERIZE" which is a liquid acrylic polymer spray with a microfibre or terry towel using no pressure and back and forth motions. spray onto a section of towel, put two fingers underneath it and treat the surface the colour will improve and protection will get better the more you apply it

If you drive your sweet ride every day, make it good policy to carry a bottle of quick detail spray, a couple microfibre cloths and protectant in the boot or glove box This way you can fix any bugs, bird droppings, water marks etc great work mate ill do this now every week

yes definately start with the claying step after you wash it
when that step is completed, then you will need to decide what polishing products you want to use There are two types - abrasive and non abrasive It's best to go with abrasive as you will be permanently the wash marring and other defects Here are my recommendations Prima Swirl and Finish Menzerna PO85U and Menzerna PO85RD final finish Swirl is the strongest of all those and is rated at medium grade correction ability and also is unique as it deep cleans the paint and brings the fresh off the gun colour back and improves clarity Finish is a light grade polish that will take the wetness, depth of gloss and clarity to the next level above what swirl is capable of I highly recommend that you finish with 85RD after or instead of Finish as it's the worlds best final finishing polish for all paint types. From there, you can either use Prima Amigo or Blackfire GEP and seal the paint with Blackfire All Finish sealant or Prima Epic. unfortunately our lacquer coating is too expensive for enthusiasts so it's pro application only if using it by hand, you'll need Lake country CCS hand pads If by machine, use Meguiars 2.0 Soft buff foam pads, Edge classic or Lake country Kompressor pads

There is a variety
Prima Nero is that one, however I suggest you try Glare Supplexinvinyl and leather product it's a softener/deodoriser, light cleaner and satin finish protectant all in two steps first step is to apply it via contour foam pad For extra colour improvement and protection, rub some product onto your palm and massage it all in firmly then softly to finish off (do not wipe any off) It's available in 355ml bottles. I can supply you with the pads etc
