[QUOTE="Lee36328, post: 252822, member: 113"] I stand corrected. Thank you AlexNg. If we cut through the clear coat, we'll be cutting through the paint. Clearcoat is paint without color pigments. None taken, no worries. In my limited knowledge, the approach can be tailored according to the condition of the paint. The decision on how aggressive or how deep (what type of products/strength level) you should go must be made bearing in mind how thick a paint/clear coat you have to work on. For example, when I started, my paint job was in bad shape. It was not flat/smooth enough to show off the shine regardless of what products were used. After several rounds of polishing, it has improved to a level sufficient to show off the shine. However, my regular detailing guy refuses to polish my car anymore. He will only clay, seal, and wax it. That's it. I am thinking about getting a new paint job. Then we can start all over again! [/QUOTE]
