Good day folks, I have a dark Monaco blue BMW metallic paint
it does have slight swirl marks and water spots on the front hood and some slight scratches on the rear and doors. Let me know if this is a good process to use.
1. Chemical Guys Citrus wash (is this a good one?)
2. Checmical Guys Clay bar blue or gray for the front hood i have some heavy contamination on front bumper.
3. Hose off car and dry it.
4 Use PC with Menzerna SIP or IP on hood, bumper, all around. (Orange pad)
5. Menzerna 106FF
6. Any glaze for that dark rich wet look pop???
7. Sealant i have Optiseal, even though some people swear by Jetseal I picked up Optiseal for like 10 bucks.
8. Pinnacle Souveran paste wax
What do you folks reccomend for outside trim and black plastic like the bumper fog light housing.
Please advise if any of these are overkill
How can i minimize he dusting on the MENZERNA SIP do i have to just keep getting it off with a microfiber towel or is the dusting significant of too much product.

1. Chemical Guys Citrus wash (is this a good one?) - what do you have now if nothing this isn't bad.
2. Checmical Guys Clay bar blue or gray for the front hood i have some heavy contamination on front bumper. - remember lots of clay lube
3. Hose off car and dry it. - I would dry the car before claying and then rinse and dry after the clay.
4 Use PC with Menzerna SIP or IP on hood, bumper, all around. (Orange pad) - sip i feel would working better work a 2x2 section use a dime to a qtr size.
5. Menzerna 106FF - white pad
6. Any glaze for that dark rich wet look pop??? - if you can achieve a perfect finish with 4 and 5 there is no need for glaze
7. Sealant i have Optiseal, even though some people swear by Jetseal I picked up Optiseal for like 10 bucks.- I would pick a wax or a sealant no need for both at least in my opinion.
8. Pinnacle Souveran paste wax
black trim = black wow.
