Your favorite MF Pad compound

[statusdetailing]

It's not hype. It corrects way faster than a traditional DA with a small throw plus you barely use any downward pressure and the machine is much much smoother and pleasant to work with.

Now that is a true plus that I forgot about...less downward pressure. I've built triceps and wrists of steel working with tradition DA's.

Instead of making me want a different compound, this crazy thread has just made me want to get a Rupes even more than ever. I don't know if I can wait till Spring! Doh!

I'm sure there will be some nice sales here very soon! Maybe wait until after SEMA to see if there's any new machines debuting.

3M Perfect-It 06085. Works great. Follow with Blackfire copound, then Blackfire polish. Fantastic results.

Good point. I'm hoping for a forced rotation DA machine with a large throw. Might be a nightmare to handle though. We'll see.

Nah, that's quite alright. I'm interested in hearing everyone's opinion on the various polishers so your reply is perfectly welcome. Thanks. I'm currently wrestling with the decision of what's next for myself. I still have just my old original pre-XP PC7424 and am considering an upgrade.

For some it seems that the Flex vs Rupes is almost splitting hairs, so the real decision for me I see is: GG6 vs. Flex/Rupes. The GG6 is much more affordably priced and if it is enough of an improvement over my old PC and can give me 90%+ of the correction ability that I could get with a Flex/Rupes then it almost sounds like a no brainer.

I'm just a hobbist/enthusiast, not a professional. I don't detail for money (at least, haven't yet) and my exposure is limited to just my own vehicles and perhaps the odd relative's car here or there, so far.

The new GG is the machine for you! Get a 3" BP for your 7424 and you will be set.

I've actually been experimenting a little with "M405." I will give it a more serious go on my next correction as see what happens.

Have you used 101 with mf pads? There is a ridiculous amount of hype surrounding that product. I need to get ahold of a sample of it somewhere.

M101 is a defect MONSTER paired with the 21 and MF pads.

Perfect example on this boat.

m101, D300, m205.

Is anyone using fg400 on mf pads with a flex?
