Here's a few pics of my parent's TLS after 1 year
This is after using a porter cable machine polisher with 3M swirl mark remover followed with 3 coats of Zaino Z-2. This was then followed with 1 coat of P21s wax.
She looks better than the day she was delivered

 

Happy b-day to your parent's TL-S!

 

Did the 3M SMR really work? my paint is a mess!

 

Are you using it by hand or by machine? In either case you have to really work it in until it's pretty much dry. This is much harder to do by hand. Reason is the SMR uses micro-abrasives that get smaller and smaller. If you try to remove it too early you're basically removing it while the abrasives are still large therefore marring the paint.

 

Well done.

 

happy aniversity to ur parents tl-s.

 

Used Meguires. Works Great!!

 

Great Job !!! Happy B-day to your parents' TL-S.

Cheers !!!

 

Happy Bday!

 

Nice pics! Great shine! You ain't from NJ! Man, we haven't seen the sun in weeks.

What kind a pads did you use. I have an orbital buffer and use sponge pads instead of cloth. Is there a difference?

 

Looking good, but next time you might want to run to a Harley dealer and buy a jar of S100 instead of the P21S. Same stuff, but the maker thought car owners would have fat wallets and spend more on the same stuff.

Also, try out the S100 SEC. They work well together. It is very slightly abasive though, so you may want to use that before Zaino.

 

I'd stick it in her tailpipe.lol
