    Pad Agressiveness

    Thanks Mike !! Very helpful :dblthumb2: I always work in my garage completely out of the sun. Two definite steps I am going to incorporate are smaller work area and more frequent cleaning of pads.

    Pad Agressiveness

    Thanks Columbia Detail!!! I reluctantly confess to becoming impatient when working my car. On my first project I was very careful to mask off a test spot. I had very good success with my first car which led to overconfidence. Of course, the second project proved more challenging and...

    Pad Agressiveness

    I have a challenging 2003 Honda project. The paint has what appears to be some etching and very stubborn water spots. Lake country orange with Meguiars UC or Wolfgang Total Swirl doesn't seem to touch it even with getting very aggressive. I now have in my arsenal the Meguiars MF system and...

    Headlight restoration 50/50.

    The results speak for themselves :dblthumb2: I am about to start on my 2003 Honda Accord. Not looking forward to working the area around the raised bump area esp if I have to do a lot of sanding by hand. I agree with your thoughts though. Having a roughed up area (very slight in this case)...

    Clear Coat Protection

    Watson1000, I have a 2003 Honda Accord (Gold) with 4x miles as my 2007 and it has almost no nicks and very few scratches...so there may be some weight in what OCDetails says about paint quality changing...:iagree: I haven't had a chance to detail the 2003 and really get a hard look at the...

    Clear Coat Protection

    Thanks for the quick replies... The paint isn't worth the expensive sealants..(too many rock chips) The scratches were caused by the driver (wife's leather purse).. I will have to give her the "keep off the grass" lecture..lol and my future is clear :buffing::buffing:

    Clear Coat Protection

    I have a 2007 Black Honda Accord. Very pleased with results of using Wolfgang Twins to remove swirls and light scratches. However, it seems that the clear coat (on the hood anyway) is "extremely" soft and vulnerable to any kind of scratching/damage. Very discouraging after spending an entire...

    I finally found time to work on the Honda. Used Wolfgang products and the PCXP. Spent almost 3 hours and got the hood and front quarters done. Gonna take a couple of weeks to get the whole car. I have to say: I am amazed at the results!!!!:dblthumb2: Is it perfect? No. Still got some...

    Help choosing system

    Thanks very much guys. I pulled the trigger on a PCXP and the wolfgang twins. I have Megs synthetic NXT and carnuba gold on hand. Which would work better as final sealer / wax? :confused: And is there any difference in micro fiber towels?

    Help choosing system

    New to the forum. Have a 2007 Black Honda Accord in need of some serious attention. I've been reading thru the forums and articles and am confused on what system would be best (read easiest) for this newbie. I am drawn to the wolfgang twins using pads vs the meguiars micro fiber correction...
