I love my Postman! Can you guys let me know if I can get away with using Korrosol only or is Snow foam needed as a second clean?

@Daveotto - My technique for Sonax BSD application -
Spray onto a panel at time
Spread in circular motion with short pile MF until you can't see the product
Then buff off with a clean short pile MF
Move onto the next panel & repeat
Remember with the Sonax BSD, less product is better. To much and you'll notice smearing
Don't worry if it feels quite 'grabby' when you've applied it. Its always like that
The beading on this stuff is amazing!

I just blew my detailing budget for the next 5 or so months on the following, wasn't ordered today, but within the last 2 weeks;

3x 5.5' hex-logic foam pads (various flavours)
3x 3.5 hex-logic foam pads (various flavours)
3.5' DA backing plate
Set of hogshair brushes
Ledlenser P7.2 torch (I really wanted a sungun, but seriously no amount of man maths can justify it)
paint depth gauge (why I have waited until now to get this is beyond me, it should of been the first thing I ever bought...)
2x 5 gallon buckets with grit guards
10x edge less microfiber towels
wet sanding block
2000, 2500, 4000 grit sandpaper
Scholl S20 black compound
chemical guys regular clay and lube
2x 500ml bottles of Gyeon iron-x

I have 4 cars to do over the next 4 weekends, but I am getting paid for them (not much though) so that will be able to justify most of the above (I hope) The paint depth Gauge was bought, because its amazing knowing what you have to work with, and to prevent any of the details I am doing from biting me.

before you ask i already had some perfectly functional buckets with grit guards, but I wanted the standard American 5 gallon semi transparent ones.

Just cleaned the car for the second time a week later after a first seal with GTechniq C2V3 but this time I diluted and used as a drying solution then buffed off and the results are amazing!

It took no time at all and not only has the car got its second coat it shines like you won't believe! Totally recommend

So i got some C1 and C2v3 in a set so i could seal my S3 when it came, but i only ended up using the C1, and i was just too ignorant to do my research into how to use the C2v3 as a finisher... all I can say is what a prat i have been!, I read the DW thread posted by bristle hound on C2v3 application and thought it give it a go... today in fact.

car needed a wash anyway, its black so on any given day it needs a wash, so i washed it dried it and finally finished it with C2v3 diluted 3:1 (as per the video in the DW thread) what a difference it makes, i really can't believe it, i mean i thought the car looked good with just the C1 and wash/dry properly, I was wrong. The light has gone a bit too much to take any decent pictures now, but I'll get some when I wash it again on Sunday.

Yep my wife has no idea, package arrives "what's this?" "err... Some new microfibre cloths..., you can never have too many...", I then go into the garage, and put everything away before she notices it not just microfibre cloths...

I just went through all my orders I placed in the last year, and added it up. I shouldn't of done that.
