    Anyone else order a Makita PO5000C?

    I have been using a rotary with wool pads on boats for yrs. Although they work, they are heavy and are too big to get into tight areas. Will this new forced rotation now give me the power to do gelcoat with wool/MF with the small size of a da?

    Question on detailing 2016 F-150 with aluminium body???

    P552 uses normal paint. That's one of my programs. I spent alot of time at the plant during the launch. You would be amazed on how much spot correction goes on to a new body.

    Who's using a deionizer?

    I store my CR system from Nov to April due to temps. I drain out all the water and store resin tubes in basement. I use it once every week or so when up and running and never had an issue with growth. I usually get 7-8 months out of resin before it comes off 0.0 TDS.

    Black Challenger - streaking after drying

    I'm being pretty accurate. I buy one gallon of distilled water and have a 2 Oz bottle of ONR when on vacation. I put about half Oz in one gallon. One thing I was doing is washing the entire car then wiping dry, when maybe I should do a panel at a time.
