Looks good......
Nice!
Looks GREAT!
Ocean, did you have any water marks before you started?
.In regards to the above question.......
Minor Water Spots (Surface) so the Porter Cable and a Non-Abrasive Polish; in this case the BlackFire Gloss Enhancing Polish worked fine; but had there been deeper water spots, I would have needed to step up to a more aggressive polish like Menzerna Final Polish II or even Menzerna Intensive Polish with an Orange Lake Country Pad....possibly even as far as moving to a High-Speed Circular Buffer (As a last resort).

You have a nice looking car too Sseater!
In regards to stripping the wax...claying and polishing should take care of that! Just for Jollys, you could always thrown in a synthetic Protectant right before the Carnuba coat..LOL....that's what I did in the pics I posted above! Just too much fun applying a good carnuba using only your fingertips....yes...I know.....I need help....HA!!

Looks good:rockon: , on black my favorite combo for a quick job, Klasse all in one and Pinnicle Wax, by hand great results, with porter cable awesome, add a claybar job and a very mild polish before and Klasse glaze after and the paint looks six inches thick. T
