Old Paint

Same here, just got my Griot's orbital last week and buffed out Red on Saturday. Car looks fantastic now!!

Got a random orbital from Griot's last week. Worked pretty good on the OEM paint from 92. (Car lives outside too)

I'm using the following Griot's stuff with their orbital:

Machine Polish #3 (w/orange pad)

Paint Glaze (w/orange pad)

Best of Show liquid carnuba wax (w/red pad)

And I'm also using Zymol Rouge wax.

I have a buffer, but was wondering what wax/grit you guys used. I worked at a dealer and they had some sweet stuff but only wholesale...so curious.

Thanks for the compliments everyone!

My process right now - wash and claybar (stage 0 for paint)

For the 240 I used an orange polishing pad with Griot's #2 and Meguiars Tech wax.

I'll be doing the 08 Prius next week with the wax applicator pad (red) and a # 4 polish to remove swirl marks. I will move to the #3 polish if they're too deep.

The C70 will just get the #4 polish and wax (Griot's Caranuba)
