My 5 step routine:

1. Menzerna Intensive Polish PO91E +Menzerna Top Inspection
2. Menzerna Final Finish PO85RD +Menzerna Top Inspection
3. Menzerna Finishing Glaze PO115C
4. Menzerna Full Molecular Jacket (FMJ)
5. Menzerna Power Lock Sealant

Thanks for the detailed info. I went out this morning and cleaned a section of the X, I think I am going to pick a clay bar first and get the paint back to clean. Anyone have any advice?

Second, when I polish, finish, glaze, FMJ, and then seal, is it ok to use a motorized bonet to remove each step?

Thanks again for all the great advice!

Google Klasse All In One. Polish and synthetic wax in one step, if you do not want to spend all weekend working on the finish. Great for hand or machine.

I use Klasse AIO, but I have been polishing with Menzerna in a 4 step process due to the sensitivity of Jet Black.

+1 on Klasse AIO, works very well.

Steps 4 and 5 are by hand.
