Hey guys, I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around hand compounding/polishing and when I need to utilize it.
My car has several spots where I'm certain I won't be able to get my GG6, even with the small 4" pads so I think I'll have to get those spots by hand. Unfortunately, I don't see many topics come across about hand polishing and when I do a search I got thousands of topics come across but I just don't have time to search each one of them. Sorry, it's the only excuse I have but it's honest.
I'm just wondering when doing cars, when do you decide you might have to set the polisher down and use some elbow grease? Would I use the same products I am using with my DA or should I use something else? Also, links for what you are using for your hand polishing would be great. I'm mainly concerned with what type of applicators I should be using for hand polishing and the proper technique. Any help is really appreciated.
Products I have available to work with currently:
GG6 w/ LC 5" & 3.5" BP
Iron X
Nanoskin Mitt (Blue-Fine)
5.5" & 4" Foam pads - Around 50 pads from LC and B&S (All types)
3D/HD Speed AIO, 3D/HD Polish, 3D/HD Poxy & 3D/HD UNO
Menzerna SF4500 & WG Deep Gloss Spritz Sealant
CG's V36 & V38, CG's Jetseal, CG's V7 spray sealant and CG's Butter Wet Wax
