Why not just what until it wears off and then apply your new stuff?

Was that clear coat pretty hard??

I just got a chance to use my surbufs for a test spot on a blk cts-v. Im not sure how i feel about them yet on the flex. Im gonna give them a try on my GG6 i just picked up as ive read they work better on random orbitals.

Yeah, I tried a lot of different things. Smaller working area, arm speed, machine speed, different pads/polish combo's, light or heavy pressure, starting with heavy pressure and easing off on the last few passes or vise versa, Cleaning the pad after each section pass compared to say, after a...

The flat pads are good, but the Hydro tech cyan and tangerine work better compared to the orange and white flats. They also absorb less product into the pad. From my experience working on toyota paint is that its very hard and not easy for the flex to correct down completely. I had made...

Doesn't look bad to me at all. The reflection of the the light bulb looks nice and clear, so that parking lot light might just be playing tricks on your eyes. Although i have never used DACP i would just say make sure you start with a nice clean contaminate free surface before any polishing or...

Did this haze show up after you used a compound on the car?

I have the 4 3/8 inch backing plate on my 3401 and use the 5.5 inch Lc Flat pads. I have mixed emotions on how well it preforms though. Most backing plates for other DA's are only a 1/2 inch smaller then the pads being used giving you more surface contact. example 5" BP w/5.5 " pad. Now if im...

I would just layer the BFWD.

So are you guys measuring the door jams scene they have less clear as a reference and then the panels your going to work on to get a good idea of how much clear is on the vehicle to play with.

You get static from BFWD? I haven't encountered this, please elaborate?

A lot of people have said that the midnight sun takes away some of the slickness of the wet diamond. Did you encounter this? The way the MF glides over the paint when wiping away the BFWD is just crazy slick... me likey.
