i used SIP and a white LC pad on my black truck and had great results, actually better than the SIP on an orange LC pad.
torchd, i recommend you purchase a gilmour foam master foam gun. i have been using this to wash my camaro since the spring detail.... after 3 foamings, i rinse with no nozzle, then dry with leaf blower.
after this i go around with a QD to prevent water spots.
a finishing polish will help the "jeweling" step, or possible a glaze like a vanilla moose
batmobile,
what LSP are you going to use ?

Every time I see the detail jobs on these high end cars, I keep thinking I gotta switch up my products. I dont think the stuff i am getting from a local supplier at the dealer I work at isnt cuttin it! Would like to spend a day with one of these guys too, almost like a buffing class.......... I've got a ton of patience to do detail work, but my jobs havent looked that good. Then again, I dont do it for a living. Tech first, detailer second........

No reason to let NXT haze for that long. That only gives time for dust and other things to land on the car, which will only scratch the surface when it is removed. As soon as it hazes, and can be rubbed off with a finger...it can all be removed.
"Cure times" aren't how long you let the product sit...it's how long you wait to put something on top of it. Example....if you are applying two products, and product A has a cure time of 12 hours.....you need to wait 12 hours after the product A has been removed before you apply product B.
