I can't think of anything more scary than having a V6 or 8 in one of these old sports cars. When I was young and extremely foolish I wanted to put one in my Austin Healy 3000. It's a good thing I never got around to it because I probably wouldn't be alive to post on this forum today.
We don't...
Polisher = UDM
Pads = LC CCS yellow, white & red but will buy whatever I need to do the job.
I got some input from Menzerna which reflects what you mentioned about the deeper scratches. Also maybe I should upgrade to the newer products for this job.
"Although you will get very fine results...
I am getting my '61 MGA painted using a 2 stage product. I currently have Menzerna Intensive Polish and Menz Final Polish II in my tool box. What combination of Menz polishes should I use on a new finish to get a show quality job.

First UDM Project results

Meguiars Gold Class shampoo
Claymagic blue
Menzerna Intensive polish...
FRP backing

I'm a nuube here and my detailing expertise until this point has been limited to claying (Griots), limited polishing using a old cheap 8" B&D vibratron and waxing with Megs 26. My new UDM should be arriving any day and I'm stoked to use it.
My question is about product. My first project...
