Step by Step for Monaco Blue?
As we all know, this color can look great when detailed right. I'm looking for feedback on how to really make this color pop. I've used Menzerna before, and have a feeling if I use the Polish, Wax, and FMJ that it will give the results I am looking for(deep shine). I've used the Nattys Blue Wax already and really liked that too. I also wouldn't mind any recommendations for best swirl remover..thanks

+1 on the nattys blue. I really like it. However, I'd like to switch it up with another wax as soon as I'm done with the nattys blue.

What is the condition of your paint? Light swirls, medium, heavy, water spots/etching etc. Also what Menzerna polishes do you have and do you have a buffing machine and pads?
I'd treat Monaco like black and the shine comes from the paint prep i.e. buffing out the imperfections and polishing to refine. Then any LSP looks good.
