MF pads dont like any pressure and slower speed 4/3 finish better.

I'm wondering are we neighbors haha I live in Whitestone too, next to Andrew from big a detailing. He probably doesn't know me.

My suggestion is removing extra products with a mf cloth once your primed the pad. I don't know what pad you are using but kompressor pad often splashes to me.

There is a possbility that your pad/applicator may catch contanimination and mar or scratch the paint.

I m wondering how many section passes did you work?

Nobody mention eurow?

I agree that flex doesn't walk whenever you get used to it. And yeah, rupes is just much smoother. Dont get me wrong. i use flex much more. Heh.

Do you mean the LOOK is rough or the paint still feel like sandpaper?

Determine how much swirls were left after the first trial then judge which pad to go. If it still left whole lots swirls, then definitely jump to more aggressive pad instead of the medium one. Otherwise vice verse.

If you're topping BL over WGDGPS, make sure hand application only.

I use Flex more often than rupes. Its just my style. I won't say one is better than the other. Both polishers have their own intention. I never done comparison in time trial or finishing quality. But what we should concern is technique instead of specific polisher or polish.

For light to moderate swirl I would recommend sonax perfect finish with white or tangerine pad. Really great result in one step.

Iron x may be your best bet on non coated wheel. I've just wash a crazy baked clearcoated wheel that took me 4times 1:3 wheelbrigther to clean it. People don't wash car these days lol

You could always adjust the aggressiveness by switching different pads. Yeah I do that

Yes. The european version named cut and finish.
