    Pressure Washer Recommendations

    I totally forgot about the shutting off when not in use, that was a major positive for me. Doesn't seem that important but it's so nice.

    Pressure Washer Recommendations

    I did tons of research on pressure washers. Online reviews, personal friends, semi-professionals, etc. Cheapest - Ryobi/Greenworks 1600 PSI 1.2GPM - $79-99 Bit better overall but not substantially so - Karcher K1700 - $140ish Pretty substantial step up - Active VE52 - $220ish This is only...

    First large order, any input?

    Done and done. Everything is ordered. Got the G9 direct from GG because AG didn't have stock. $500 poorer but I think I am good to go. 25% off is so massive, saved me over $100. Payed for 2/3 of the G9. So glad I found AG lol.

    With all the pads I think I'll 18. I really should get up to 24? I'm not opposed, just seems like a bit overkill. The price difference per pad isn't huge and I will be ordering more when I get my coating if needed. I kinda wanted to do 6 pack now, see what I like, get another 6 or 12 when I get...

    Alright, I think I am good. Ending with 7 Orange Compounding, 6 Polish(White and Black, LC and GG respectively) and 2 wax(because combos).

    One pad is enough to wax a whole car? I am guessing they don't get clogged as easily or something? I assumed 2-3 dedicated for waxing.

    Changed to HyperWash. I think the black pads with the adapter is closer to a white LC pad. It says polishing, no finishing. As for the red, I am doing actual wax so I think that's best no? I was told waxing with a pad with any cut is a big no-no.

    How about this? Got the GG backing plate with pads, moved down to the 6 pack of pads because the plate has 6 with it. I think I have a good assortment of pads, like 6 orange, 5 white/black(LC&GG) polishing, and 4 waxing. I am unsure if the white LC is fine enough for polishing but I think it is...

    You're right, I need to take those out. Or I could keep them in I guess for a future job like you said. I just received the Pearl towels because I ordered those earlier so I may just get everything and be ready. The real GG one is sold out, however I'll see if it's somewhere else. I see.. I'll...

    Final list? I have a Nanoskin fine pad and McKee's N-914 on the way from Amazon. I think I am ready to order?

    I was thinking the exact same thing! I am getting everything sorted and I will post my final updated list.

    He told me 2-4 weeks for wax and 4-8 weeks for coating. He said he doesn't use coatings but almost always waxes at the 2-3 week mark with no issues ever. I'm fine waiting as long as needed. Better safe than sorry even if he would fix it if something went wrong. The only reason I'll probably...

    What about something like this? 3D HD One and Poxy 5.5? Paint Renewal Kit HD One to polish/compound and Poxy to wax/seal? Also, update; My friend/body shop just told me he'd rather repaint the entire car from scratch. Like complete pull apart and repaint. Not sure if that would change...

    Is the 3D Speed a "top notch" wax/sealant? Like should I just go right out and get the 3D One/Speed combo or should I take another 9 hours for research? Haha

    First large order, any input?

    I think I am going wax/sealant and then getting a coating once I have a permanent spot under cover for it.
