What!?!?!?! At Wal-Mart!?!?!?! I know what I'm doing tonight!!! -Brant

I'm using 3m perfect-it rubbing compound (06085) and perfect-it machine polish (06064). So I went to the NACE show yesterday for work. And while I was there I saw a 3m booth and they had a demo going on. I stopped by and talked to the guy who was running tell demo. I told him what I was trying...

Thanks Kevin. Ya I probably could, but I'll do the whole car first and make sure haha. Hopefully others will chime in to and maybe someone knows why I can't get results with the other products. That's really the only thing that bothers me. Why the other products didn't work on taking marks out...

Just going to throw this in here too. Check your engine oil too. Last thing you want is water in your oil. I'm not saying that you do, I'm just saying check it for safety. If water got into the cylinder, last thing you want is it to slip past the piston rings and into the oil. Water will just...

The last shot is with polish on it. But,no wax. I cleaned the pad after each section pass. I put the amount that I did on the pad to prime it. Looking back on it now, I probably didn't have to prime it with each product and could have used 3 small pea dots. Either way I will probably try again...

Sorry for posting this twice guys. I couldn't delete the old one so I had to redo it. Sorry again. Hey everyone! So, I got off work early today and I right away thought that it was perfect timing because I could do some test spots and see what works and what won't. SO, I documented everything...

Ya it's doing the same on mine too. I'm not sure how I am supposed to post pictures from my computer into the wording like I have. I'm going to have to look around for how to do that -Brant

Hey everyone! So, I got off work early today and I right away thought that it was perfect timing because I could do some test spots and see what works and what won't. SO, I documented everything that I did, and even better, I took pictures for you guys :Picture:!!! The first thing I did was fill...

Kevin, No worries, I have gotten pretty turned around myself. I wasn't even aware that you could do it the way you described. Its still worth a shot if the other way doesn't work. Always good to have other options. I did a bunch of book learning back in December and January, but I tend to learn...

Haven't really had a chance to try anything yet. Probably come this weekend I might get a shot, but I'm not to sure yet. A couple guys at the paint shop I work at said rotary as well. I'm thinking if the da just doesn't do the trick then I might have to pull out my rotary to do the job. I really...

Trutech, Ya I'm planning on doing a full polish to get any and all small scratches and what not out of the car. I've got the compound and polish from 3m, but I also have various other products from megs that I have listed in my first post. I'll probably start with m205 on a yeast spot, see how...

Kevin- Right, yes, sorry, I was in such a rush to get a response out that I confused myself on what size hahaha. I guess I'm confused on the compounding part you are talking about. So I should be using the polishing compound to take the marks out or the actual compound? Or just skip the 3m...
