    New D151 vs. Black Jeep

    I have been wanting to use the new Meguiar's D151 Paint Reconditioning Creme and a couple days ago I had the perfect chance! It's an 08 Jeep Patriot that had minor to moderate swirls and some minor holograms.

    It was a one step job and I usually would go right for the M66 on a car like this. I decided to try the D151 and had great results. You can't see in the after pics because of the lack of sun we ended up with but it did a great job removing the defects and didn't haze the paint at all.

    The main thing that I was very impressed with was the shine it left. Much more like #21 than #66 in my opinion. Cut was also good and work time was as long as I wanted. I have since used it on 2 more cars with similar results.

    This stuff is awesome

    On a 300C I did just yesterday I had deeper swirls to deal with and all I did to adjust my process was to use a little more D151 and work it longer. I got some REAL cut out of it then with no hazing. I still have the option of moving to speed 5 on the PC to get more cut and have not tried it on the rotary yet.

    Here are the after pics and process:

    Wash with Gold Class and Microfiber Chenille Mitt
    Clay with Mild clay and Quik Detailer for a lube
    Applied D151 via PC and Yellow W-8006 Polishing pad on speed setting 4.0
    #40 on tires

                    Looks great. Now I cant wait until my 151 shows up.
                    If its fast, loud, and runs on a flammable liquid...count me in.

                        Thanks guys. For a simple one step I was pretty happy with the results. It took me about 1hr from when I started washing the car to when I was finishing waxing it...that includes time to clay. Another 15 minutes to let the wax haze (I dressed the tires during this time). And finally wiping off the wax and cleaning the glass. All said and done it was less than 2 hours and I was taking my time. This stuff is GREAT!
