So as it says in the title... DO you guys think this paint could be saved? The car is a 1986 Camaro I believe it has a single stage paint but I am not sure. I read online that you can do a 1500 wet sand to a 3000 grit to a M101 with a microfiber cutting disk and then follow it up with a M201 and...

where at do you live? Im in baltimore

well for 35$ i guess i have to figure out this learning curve to it.

i did about 3 horizontal and 3 vertical passes, and misted after the first pass. the scratches cannt be caught with a fingernail.

OK so a couple of weeks ago i ordered the GG 6" DA. I then got the detailing bug and started to order and buy things. I went to harbor freight and got the pads, i got m105, UC for the less wores off cars, m205, clay kit, and ordered collinite 845. theres results were done by * clay bar *...

Bump

I know gold would be a waste, but could it work to allow me time to get the 845 and put it on..... since the m205 wont give me the shine I want. so for light swirls in the paint i could use the UC and for anything heavier use the m105?

so the collinite 845 isnt coming in til monday, and im trying to take my car to an event. could I *clay bar *UC some areas *m205 whole car *meguires gold then after it comes in, wash the car again and apply the C845?

so skip out on the megs gold?

Ok guys im sorry for all these posts, but just wanted to make sure I have the right order in applying my products. 1) wash car 2) Clay car with very soppy water 3) ulimate compound some areas (megs) 4) m205 whole car (megs) 5) Collinite 845 whole car 6) Megs Gold Carnuba wax 7) tire...

I've seen these pads at the store and was wondering if they were any good. They have 3 different ones. One for compounding, polishing, then a finishing pad. there foam and as you go from compounding to finishing it gets more squshier..... can anyone chime in?

so is this the correct order to go by wash clay bar (some sport get the ulitimate compound from megs) m205 m#9 845 could I get away with just using the 205 then going right to the C845 or should i also use the #9?

So just as I was about to place an order. I saw a video that ai guy who was using the m205 followed up with the #9 by meguiars. I was wondering if the collinite 845 would do the same thing or which one is better. I feel like the meguires #9 would work better because it is 2 of the same products...

thanks guys. I think im gona go ahead and order the m205 and c485 and just get the pads and the ultimare compound and megs gold from advanced auto. THANKS EVERYONE

so do you think i should apply the m105 with the red megs pad, the 105 with the yellow megs pad, the c845 with the black megs pad and the Megs Carnuba with the black also?
