I prepared the car wash, clay bar and then machine polished with Menzerna medium cut before finishing with final finish on LC pads. I then spread the Menzerna Power Lock with a finishing pad at low speed with the Vertool Force Drive polisher. It went in very easily. I left it around 20 mins after doing the whole car and it wiped off really easily. The finish was lovely! Very slick and to my eyes, it did seem to enhance the gloss. Just because, I then added a top layer of Collinite 915. I am really pleased with the Menzerna Power Lock and have added it to other details. Great stuff, easy to work with and whether or not wax is added is a great stand alone last step product.
