mostly contributed by the choice of cloths - esp - good morning cotten terry towel - ta da

as for me - i would choose plushy microfibers towel - contaminant pick during wash

surface contaminant pick during clay

otherwise it will be push further in when correctional carried out - removing the root cause

cheapest & best QD around - dilutables- for clay

Whoa!! super awesome as always!!

I just love you picture heavy posts! :props:

btw I see you have a modified DeWalt DW443

Incidentally I too own one. Can you show the modifications on it?
(I use it with the same 6" backing plate it comes with)
:hungry:
 
Kc,

I always look forward to your threads!

The information and photos are the best and clearly identified so that the reader can easily follow them through the post.

This test is a great example that shows both product and user performance and I particularity enjoyed the four section comparison! :props:

Superb work once again! :dblthumb2:

How come everyone's wearing those yellow glasses? :laughing:

Thanks Sohail99 - for your kind words, you really know how to encourage me....
for I have only one passion - that is to help others of finding the path through...

as for once i was lost & incapable in finding out the truth
I know how frustrating it can be - when u tried your best & you only seems to get no where. going to the wrong people for advise & worse of all most meguiars shops technician here purposely gives the opposite instruction from the label. many guru scares to lose their reputation to others detailers.

as I have nothing to lose & i found out that I actually gain more when i lose - to be a giver than a taker

after all that i have been thru
I would only want to share & bless the world with the little knowledge I know. perhaps this is the best area of my contribution as it is my PASSION

I find joy in restoring cars, as i see deem & fit as it reflect pretty much of my life , for once i was broken & lost but now found & loved. You now the joy of being loved. after serving in a children homes for 7 years - i know the value of restoration & giving hope to these children means.....same applies here

I see the resemblance of my life similarly like in abuse car as for once i was abusing myself with all form of substance . Thank God for giving me a new start & I am able to share with you all....

I do not know how to thank each of you more- but just let me say one more thank you
for being around here, coming along side with me & my heart felt gratitude - you all is my truly guru's & I am proud to called u friends :iagree:

Thank you for your detailing ship :dblthumb2:

BTW the dewalts belong to one of the enthusiast never the less - i shall take more pics & share with u

Very nice thread KCs. Nice work. I really like the clarity you have achieved with just one product and Hyper Compound at that!! Who would have thought.

Coming back from a low bottom place in life is truly God's Grace, an unwarranted gift for sure and your gratitude shines through in your giving spirit. :dblthumb2:
