First go with Meguiars G220 (similar to Porter Cable)

Pics of my BMW 325i after my first go with my new G220 using #83 and a Sonus SFX-1 pad, then topped of with Clearkote Carnuba Moose Wax. Pretty happy with the results. Car is Monaco Blue by the way not black.

Carnuaba Moose Wax is the deepest wax. Not too shiney, but a rich luster I'd say.
