Thanks, Mike! I'll be using the pads to apply either Meguiar's 21 or Wolfgang Sealant. With the Buff and Shine pads, would the white be the best choice? Is the black LC 3.5" pad the best choice with those? I'll likely go with the Buff and Shine since they fit better but was just curious on the...

I am going to get the Wolfgang Polishin' Pal and might purchase a few more pads. In the description it says to purchase the Spot Buff 3.5" pads. When I search for those they are the LC CSS pads with the dimples. I'm not a big fan of the dimples and like the flat pads more. Can I use the LC...

I'll get some better pictures tomorrow. Those were the best I could get that day. For sealants I'm using Wolfgang but want to try Meguiars 21.

Thanks everybody for the insight and answers. I'll take a look at all the products everybody mentioned too. Here are two pictures of my truck taken today. The whole truck was washed but only the hood was clayed and sealant added. Thoughts on the condition of the paint overall? I'll get...

So I have a few detailing questions on a few different topics and didn't want to start a new topic for each question. I've gotten more into detailing the last few years so I'm still learning but enjoying it all. 1. Do you polish ever time you detail or do you just hit any new scuffs, etc as...

Thanks, Visitor. So those towels would be good for removing compound, polish, wax, quick detailer, interiors and everything else? I've always heard you should have different colors to differentiate different tasks.

I am in need of some new microfiber towels to replenish some old ones I have. Most of mine came in the Meguiar's Clay Kits, waxes, etc. I also have the cheap ones from HF when using them for tasks that I don't care if the get ruined. I never use them removing polish, wax, etc. I'll need...

Thanks for the reply! I'm going to check out the 3M. I've never seen in locally so I'll probably have to order it. But, between #7 and UP which do you think produces a better shine? Throwing another polish in the mix since I already have it but what about Pinnacle Advanced Finishing Polish...

Do I need to polish every time I wax my truck? I want to get the most shine out of the paint each time I wax but I also don’t always have the time to polish before. I always clay the truck before though. I have been using UP but I also purchased some Pinnacle Polish that I haven’t tried yet...

I ended up doing a full polish using UP. I tried the Pinnacle but wasn't pleased with it but I also didn't have much time to experiment with it so I went with something I've used before and knew works. We have a '95 Wrangler whose paint is pretty neglected which will be my test vehicle for the...

Definitely going to clay. I'll waiting and see what the paint looks like after claying and make the determination if it needs polishing. First assessment says it doesn't but that could change.

The car is garage-kept and only washed by hand. I checked it yesterday in full sun and I could not see any swirl marks anywhere.

I'm going to be detailing a 2016 Toyota Avalon with dark charcoal paint (not sure of the exact color name). When I looked the other day I did not notice any major surface defects (swirls, etc) just normal everyday defects from rocks, etc. There are a few light scratches that will need to be...

Re: Pinnacle or Wolfgang - Which LC pad? one additional question. Since Pinnacle products are diminishing products, would a LC Flat or CCS pad be better? I currently have Flat but will get some CCS is that is a better option.

I tried to search here and the web but couldn't find any answers. I currently use Meguiars compounds, polishes and waxes but want to give some other brands a try and was thinking about either Pinnacle or Wolfgang. What LC pad combinations should I use with either or their compounds and...
