Super Sexy Pearl Red Metallic Jeep GC

[TTQ B4U]

So Ben must really love his wife as he bought her one of the nicest Overland edition Jeeps I've seen. LOVE the color. Reminds me of the Fusion I had only the paint is also among the nicest I've seen. It's not without orange peal but the the clear coat and color are fantastic.

 

Goal was to clean it up and provide some protection going into winter. Ben said it was last waxed in Feb. 2015 and I would concur. Lots of waterspots etched into the hood and roof but nothing that couldn't be removed.

 

Great news is the paint corrected beautifully and a solid 99.9% correction was achieved. I was able to remove a couple small scratches from the hatch where it seemed to have met the garage door The remianing one could be corrected but not this go-round. Just needs some clear coat fill and sanding.

 

The outcome left the paint not only hugely reflective which let's the metallic just jump out in the sunlight (not much of it today though) but also as slick as wet-ice. Not much in the way of contaminants is going to stick to this baby for a while.

 

The process:

 

• Meg's Gold Class wash
  
• Red/Medium Nano Sponged
  
• Iron X
  
• Polished with a Flex 3401 DA
  
• Orange Hybrid Force Pads
  
• HD Speed topped with Collinite 845
  
• Wolfgang Exterior Trim Sealant (WETS) on the trim
  
• More Shine Tire Spray - I like water based stuff. Sealant version coming soon.
  
• Opti-Seal on the glass which does a great job in lieu of an actual coating

Just the one remains and it's barely noticeable at normal viewing distance.

Looks great. I'd like to have my viper done. But it's not a priority yet. Keep up the great work.
