    Thinking about purchasing the PE8

    I just purchased the PE8 kit, and although I am new to rotary polisher, I really like this unit. Really like the versatility of 1,2,3 inch pads. And yes, I am getting holograms which I am to correct for the most part using the black pad and some finishing polish.

    XC 3401 VRG Backing plate rubbing on ring gear

    That's what I thought as well, it is seated correctly, and was like that when I removed it. I always ensure the plate is seated correctly before polishing.

    Application of Gtechniq CSL+EXOV2 did not turn out right

    Think you are correct. I did try once again but after 4 hours of curing and there was far less hazing. Although still some present. A few days later I coated a different car (white in color) and applied CSL, left it to cure for at least 12 hrs before applying EXOV2 and no hazing at all. This...

    Application of Gtechniq CSL+EXOV2 did not turn out right

    This is what I was following, however I didn't do the whole car. Q: Can it be layered/stacked? A: We do not recommend stacking layers of Crystal Serum over previous layers of Serum (you can but our tests have shown that it doesn't offer an advantage), but you can stack layers of EXO or C2...

    Application of Gtechniq CSL+EXOV2 did not turn out right

    All, I'd appreciate your help with this one. I decided to apply Gtechniq CSL+EXOV2 on one of my vehicles. Although I had previously applied Optimum coating I have not applied Gtechniq until now. Obviously I corrected the paint properly, and wiped down all the panels using Carpro Eraser, just...
