    First time machine polishing - Product recommendations?

    With adding the test spot, your plan is sound. I keep Sonax Cutmax, Ex 04-06 on hand.

    First time machine polishing - Product recommendations?

    Griots G9 with their supporting pads and polishes are a good start. The issue is no one can give you a pad and polish combination that guaranteed to give you great results on your car. We don't know how your paint is going to react. You need to do a test(s) spot on the car. And a second...

    I wanted to see how the paint would respond to a light polish. Sonax NP 03-06 with a white pad on a Flex cordless free spin polisher. Before and after shot. Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

    Picked a 2001 Trans Am WS6 for a new project. Car has sat for 7 years and will require more than detailing. I will keep the mechanics of the resurrection off the forum, or maybe you want to see that too? 60k miles and all original down to the tail pipe. For the detailing portion: Car feels...
