ND Miata Detail Series: E3 - Polishing and Coating Prep

Time to let everyone loose on the Miata and knock out the 1-step Sonax Perfect Finish correction. We did use Jescar Correcting Compound on some Meguiar's microfiber pads on some small areas.

Having watched HQ get put together over many months, it’s nice to see the whole process from wash to coating and see all those little obsessed about details equipment wise come into action.

I’d like to see more of the Miata, what all does he have done to it ?

I find keeping mine in the garage and once a year using good ole Turtle Wax paste wax works

For wiping off 210, how about spraying the surface or towel with eraser and then wiping off? I recall some detailer doing that prior to each wipe off. More towels but perhaps easier

That Mark 3 looks so stable and smooth. I want one!

Question. I have been thinking about coating my car for a while. I have most everything I would need to decon, polish, and prep for the coating. There is just one problem: time. I don't have the time even on a weekend to dedicate the 10 or so hours it would take to do it all myself. So my question is, could I wash my car (I do that every weekend) and decon, polish, prep, and coat one or two panels at a time? When I would be doing a new panel the next weekend that butted up against a freshly coated one I could tape it off as to not polish off the coating. I dk maybe this was a really dumb question and I should just pay someone to do it but I enjoy doing this kind of stuff myself, as much as I can anyway.

So what was the name of the Meguiar's product that was used to remove sealant/wax from the plastic and rubber trim? Thanks

Hi, after you were done polishing you were spraying and wiping with what? And why?

[ericosipov]

Have you tried running the machine while you blow out the pad when you don't a tornador? That's what I do.

[ericksaldana]

@obsessedgarage do you know the paint code to that car

[johnwalters]

I was all about asking why you didn’t use Perfect Finish, then you beat me too it while watching. Can’t wait to see what Crystal Serum Light looks like. I assume you will top with Exo V4?

[yourboieejake]

Did you try using more product? It sounds like there wasn't enough product for two passes and you were just getting dried out. Car looks amazing though.

Came here for the detail and stayed for the soldering :)

[jkgjr]

What do you use to wash your microfiber towels?

[Jeeper]

Haha i just recently learned how to solder myself. Took forever to figure out why the solder was not melting lol
