Thanks Rick! Once I get all of the paint defects fixed, I'm really going to go to town with the claybar! I'm even debating if I want to put myself through the agony called Zaino.
It wouldn't be worth it to me but that's your call.

I also want to try Luso Oro. My buddy uses it on his EP3 and that car looks and feels sweet! It's one of the only "hand applied" waxes I've seen.

OK so I spent about 2-2.5 hours cleaning the car today...

It needed a bath pretty bad, so I did that first, fully dried, then applied WP as described all over the place..
I took pictures of PreWash, PostWash, and lastly PostWP (Post WetPaint). Yeah I went a LITTLE crazy with the pictures... that's why I'm not posting them all in the thread..
My camera pretty much sucks *****, so the quality might be lackluster. Also, I forgot to PhotoShop my license plate out of all the pics so I used PhotoBucket's edit feature, which for some reason left some retarded artifacts of the paintbrush object in random places... Last time I use that... If I'm not too lazy I might update them later.

When I was done cleaning, my wife came out and was like "wow did you already apply the Wet Paint?" Do my dismay, it made me quickly think that maybe WP won't do anything much more for my car? Even as I started to apply it, I was doubting it's abilities.. I mean here I am spraying what looks like watered-down Pepto Bismol all over my car, and when I rub it down it kinda leaves a pasty look behind... Is this going to do ANYthing?

Abso-$*&Y*$ing-lutly!!!! As I started to wipe off the coupe window in my garage (with only a single 45 watt bulb over my head) I could instantaneously detect a SUPERB improvement in reflection... I got so giddy I was yelling obscenities. The wifey came back out and saw the difference.. She too started saying "HOLY #*&$! That looks GREAT!"

I only did 1 coat, and I'm strongly considering a 2nd. As instructed I filled the bottle to about 75% to the top, and probably used a little under 75% of that... I haven't done the math to figure out what consumption that is, but it wasn't much, that's for sure. Now "Sylvia looks sexy in her new dress" as my wife says

So I give it 2 thumbs up.


In my pictures it's mostly hard to see, but I feel that these two are the best at showing the differences:

http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/c...n/IM003143.jpg - Freshly WetPainted and hand buffed


I also really liked these pictures:

Cool... I'm happy

Yeah, I might do a 2nd application this weekend... see if it shines even more...


I do have to say though, it seems like the silver doesn't really reflect too much more; or it's not as visible... but I still notice a difference.
