Default Pics of detailed berlina

When I purchased my S2000 back in February I decided I would try some new products. The prima line is from detailers paradise and the entire line has gotten good reviews on some of the other detailing forums. I've been a big Zaino and klasse / p21s user for years now and it was time to try something different. I haven't seen really any posts here mentioning the prima line, so I thought I would post up some results. When I picked up the car the dealer had already removed the plastic and detailed the car, so I was unable to put a stop to the dealer installed swirls. So during the first week I polished it with my PC and following process.

Wash with Prima Mystique
Clay
Polish with Prima Finish and white pad on my 7336
Glaze / Filler with Prima Amigo using a black pad
Wax with Prima Epic using a black pad

During the past few months I've just been maintaining the paint using the same products. Their quick detailer is one of the better ones that I have used. I used this and the Z8 side by side for a quick comparison and this is much slicker than the Z8. After reading some of wanabe's posts and having p21s on hand I decided to sandwich that in there as well. So the pictures below also include a top layer of p21s. I've had good success with it and you just can't beat p21s on a black car. Here are some pics from last weekend with 2 days of driving and dust on the car.






Wanabe, hopefully this is badge worthy? If you guys would like a more detailed review of the products I'd be happy to post more details.

very nice job and i liked the review!
glad to see prima reviewed here- if you have used zaino before, what are your thoughts on it as a comparison?

badge is in the oven!!
(and for anyone reading this and wanting one too, the "normal" method of badging is to post up pics and pm me for the badge- in case i miss the request)

Bringing this post back from the dead, but I was looking for people who have used Prima. I'd like to support a fellow s2ki member and have also seen his products get some good reviews. I'm just trying to understand what all the products do, with my question about the Hydro product.

Have you tried the Hydro product? Since it's supposed to have some wax like features, I'm wondering how it might stand up durability wise. And since it's a spray, it's super easy to add more coats, or put the top coat back on. I'm guessing it should be used on top of Edge. I'm assuming your white pad is a polish pad since you didn't state what pads you were using.

Your car is looking good!!
