Phillps is no longer with Autogeek?

Bueler........Bueler.......Bueler........ Nobody has any suggestions on cleaning this up? Thanks

Is it possible to lighten the gel a few shades with wet sanding it, or using a different product, or possibally wiping it down with a solvent (mineral spirits, aceatone, etc prior to buffing??? I have not ran the Super Cut yet, I always start off with the least agressive product to get the job...

Heres how the side turned out. In these you can see the difference between the original swiss coffee and the fresh pure white and some of the original white that was covered up from the sun. The hatch cover edge VS. the swiss coffee gelcoat And it's got some burn...

I`m working on a project I picked up and I`m wondering if it`s possible to get the white gelcoat to either lighten up a few shades or more or get it back to ultra pure white. There`s thousands of shades of "white" and this boat`s current white is more like a light mocha or Swiss Coffee and I`d...

Ok HF DA has been fully repaired so it'll remain in the stable and lives to polish another day! At this point since the HF is fully functional, I think I'm going to use the HF with a 3" pad for small spaces and as a back up polisher AND I'm going to skip the G9 and look at getting either a G15...

"Trailers" with Fiberglass smooth sides? If so that material is very different from enamel aluminum panels.

Did this spent a half a day trying a bunch of different combos, this is not clear coat, it's raw oxidized enemanel that's a coulpe thousands thick when it's new, not when it's 22 years old and been washed many times, machine polished, hand polished before. It was so bad when I got it, if you...

Thanks everybody for their feedback, it helps clarify things. One last question, still Recomend the G15 at $260 (retail) over the G9 at $125? Is the difference between the two worth an extra $135? I'm not sure I can use the long throw on my 750 sqft of enameled aluminum panels as their...

There is a "best" given my situation, that's why I provided so much info. Basically is it best to get a G9 or a G15 & PC? Don't want to believe the latest hype on the G9 and buy something that doesn't work for my needs.

Been using the Chicago Electric (HF) DA for 8 or so years and it finally kicked the bucket (it fell off a bucket and broke the body in two internally) so it's time to get a new one. Not new to Polishing, started on rotary's back in the day, spent 8 years on the HF doing a couple cars a year. I...

Setting up a larger DI system to make it easier to deal with my 550 ppm well water and very little shade on a dirt lot in the 2nd hottest spot in America. Who has the best quality and cheapest VIRGIN mixed bed DI resin? I need 0.75 to 1.0 cuft, or about 45-50 lbs. Amazon has some cheap...

Used to use Mark IV tire dressing ran out and their long out of business so then I tried 3D and don't like it. The 3D dries Matte, doesn't seem to keep the rubber hydrated, very disappointed in this recomendation. So I'm looking for a new tire DRESSING (not a coating). I've read a lot of...

First I live 1,000ft from a freeway that gets a a million cars a day and I back to street that gets 400k cars & trucks a day and my vehicles are outside 24/7 so I get a lot of fallout. Also the 476 isn't gone in a month but if I let it sit longer than 4-6 weeks without a wash particles start...

This is a bit of a review and a request for feedback on other comparable products. My normal matience schedule on my personal cars is hand wash & wax, HD Speed, topped with Colonite 476. This combo lasts a good month with very little contaminates imbedding in the paint BUT this process is a...
