Cleaned up the 991 a bit today...
Needed to clean up the 911 a little bit. Didn't need a whole lot. Paint was already in excellent shape.
I wanted to try out a few 'new' things in my arsenal. 1.) the HD polishes. 2.) Pinnacle Black Label coatings.
Wanted to try out the new HD line. Gave HD polish a shot. Used my Flex 3401 and Rupes LHR75. Finishing pads on both. Wow! Love this stuff! Practically dust free...smells good, long work time and it really took care of a few minor imperfections I had to deal with very well. Diggin it! Dare I say I am liking it more than Menz SF400!
Next up was the Pinnacle paint cleansing lotion. Applied this via machine. No issues.
Then I ventured where I have not before. Coatings. Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Paint Coating. I started with my door jams first to see how it went on/off/flashed. Goes on easy. 'Spreads/covers' well. A little seems to go a long way. The high spots wiped off easily enough. It seemed to 'darken' the paint a bit. It really appears to have made the metallic pop...and the paint looks like it has a lot of depth to it. So far I am a believer. I will see what the durability/upkeep is and report back.
Next up to bat: Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Glass Coating. Very easy to use! Spray onto the glass, apply/spread/cover the glass, wait approx. 1 minute or so for it to flash, and then wipe away the high spots. It left the glass looking very 'clean' and streak free. Nice.
HD Dress on the tires. Goes on nicely. The consistency seems a little thin, but it's not a negative. Nice 'medium' gloss with one coat. Just what I was looking for.
HD Metal on the tailpipes. Worked great.
On to the pics!

Looks great. I've been using collinite paste wax recently. It's not that expensive is durable and looks great. http://www.collinite.com/automotive-...ue-d-elegance/

Thanks all! rnl: I have some and have used it as well. It is very durable. Gives a nice carnauba glow too! The trick with it is to apply it super thin...or else you will need a hammer and a chisel to get it off! LOL
Thanks again for all the comments!
