Yes, I think so, and it is not so pricey! I should use this as my first foam gun with my current Turtle Zip wax wash soap.
Thanks for helping.

Optimum gloss coat is on!
I highly recommend this product and also the nanoskin mitt which acts as a clay bar but a lot easier to use. I noticed that my paint was 10 times cleaner after using this mitt. I'm pretty happy with the end result!

The result is impressive and how long did you spend on this coat?

Very nice. Yah, Nanoskin is awesome. I use the DA pad version and it makes for even quicker work. So you didn't do (didn't need to?) any paint correcting?

1. Wash & Rinse 2. Use the nanoskin clay mitt on the whole surface of the X5 using the nanoskin glide lubricant to remove all contaminant. 3. Rinse and dry 4. Apply Rubbing alcohol to remove any residue of previous wax/sealant etc. 5. Apply opti-gloss coat as suggested. The whole process took about 3 hours.
