It's not a problem if done by a quality paint shop. But yeah, gotta pay to play, with body and paint, including detailing.

Pearl white is a factory color. I Opticoated one a couple weeks ago.

Very nice job!

Yeah, I wouldn't mind a link. Thanks.

Anyone in Portland, OR have a Rupes 21 that I could take for a spin? :)

I have a love/hate relationship with the Flex. I would try these pads again on the PC, but I've destroyed them all. As much as I like buying from Autogeek, I wish I had a local distributor for replacement stuff that I don't want to wait a few days shipping for.

A pad shouldn't delaminate after two 2'x2' sections.

These are Lake Country microfiber, not Meguiars. I clean my pads with the Meguiars nylon pad cleaning brush. Every single one of these damn pads has delaminated just from working on the trunk.

I love the cut and finish that these pads have, but when they're not delaminating, they're shedding constantly.

I'm hoping it's just a bad lot. It's been between 55-65 degrees both times I've used them, and they came right out of the bag. It takes forever to clean off all the loose fibers.

I purchased some 6" and 3" Lake Country Microfiber Pads a couple months ago. The Autogeek rep suggested them on the phone to me when I was looking to buy some more pads. I bought two of each to test with. The first opportunity I had to try them was a couple weeks ago and it was on a black CX-9...

I have a client who has a couple of business jets and I have been detailing their cars when they take the jets out. Now they want me to detail the jets when they come back in. The interiors are pretty similar to the interiors of luxury cars, but the exteriors of jets are quite a bit more...

Oh yeah, I didn't touch the muddy tires because there's a bunch of fill dirt on the driveway to the shop right now for a landscaping project, so the tires would just get muddy again when I pull the car out.

Thanks. I picked it up last Friday, and it's going to spend a lot of time in the garage full time until I get the top replaced.

I did a single stage polish on the car today and topped it with Blackfire Wet Diamond sealant. I'll probably top it tomorrow with Detailer's Pro Max Wax. I'd say that the Wolfgang Total Swirl Remover polish, orange Lake Country CCS foam pads, and Flex 3401 machine did at least an 85% correction...
