bringing the color up on a 240
#16
careful with the buffers though, you can burn through the paint pretty easy. think of it like ironing clothes, just dont stay in one spot too long.
and I have a brand of car wax that is color matched to my car, I dont remember who makes it, but it really brings the shine out. I didnt use it last time, and used a normal wax and its really lacking.

its turtlewax, and its red. my car is red... it comes with a little lipstick looking thing that you can fill in scratches with, but it doesnt work all that great. the wax works quite well though, I'm waiting for a good overcast day to go wax it again.

you dawn the car..yea the dishwash soap....
1.using dishwash soap will get rid of all the wax and crap on ur car...(prepares it for claying)
2.Claybar...this is a miracle bar...u paint turns better than showroom quality...well feels better....takes 1-2 hrs give or take
3.wash again...(might not have to) gets rid of all the stuff left by the claybar.
4.dry..dry w/ terrycloth...should be new....car has no was...it can leave alot of scrathes
5. POLISH in the shade...THICKER coats WONT Make it better....its a chemical bonding process or sump.. MOre coats...the better... it makes the paint darker...rich in color
6. buff...make sure u buff it off evenly....ur paint might have spots of dark n not so dark...step 5 n 6 3x
7...same as 5 and 6 but replace polish w/ wax
(3x)
