I have always assumed that Purple Power, Greased Lightniing and others are pure degreasers (such as Meguiars Super Degreaser) whereas Meguiars APC is a concentrated APC and Meg's APC+ is a concentrated APC with a little degreaser in it. In other words, I would assume that Meg's APC and APC plus...

I have heard of people using Dawn or APC along with detergent to really make sure they get their towels and applicators clean. Maybe they will help get the wax residue out of your wash machine. Just remember, if you use Dawn, DO NOT USE VERY MUCH. If you use too much your wash machine will...

I didn't have alot of problems with suds flying around. I was using Detailer's Pride's carpet and uphostery cleaner which in my opinions suds quite a bit and I was able to keep the suds pretty much on the carpet. Once I use up the DP product, I will be switching to Meg's APC+ which I imagine...

It doesn't take alot of pressure. Because the surface of upholstery is not as smooth as paint (obviously) there is more friction to "catch" the brush and stop it from spinning, only oscilating (sp?).

The screw into a DA just like a regular backing plate. So if a traditional backing plate fits on the Griot 6", then yes, they will work on that machine.

By doing so your wash media would get dirty and not have a change to get cleaned like it does when using a bucket when you rinse out your wash media after washing a panel.

Unfortunately with the Flex, you cannot get smaller backing plates. If you want to use smaller pads you need to by the Flex Adapter: Edge FLEX XC 3401 Conversion Adapter, Edge Pads adapter for FLEX Orbital Buffer, 3M Edge 2000 Adapter and pads that fit it such as these: Cyclo Double...

You brought up a point that doesn't have much agreement on, that being: when getting ready to polish a car, should you strip the old wax/sealant (LSP) off first. One camp says: "Of course, that way you are always working on a clean surface when polishing." The other camp says: "Why bother, if...

Somebody on this thread mentioned of you rotary polish enough cars, eventually you will make a mistake. His advice for rotary novices was, buy a body panel and purposely burn the paint a few times so you get a feel for what to look out for. Even after burning the panel, start on your own car...

I hope I don't make this more complicated than it should be but I will break the question up into three questions, 1) How often do I compound polish, 2) How often to I lightly polish the paint, 3) How often to I clean the paint. 1) I try to compound a car only once, when I first buy it and use...

Welcome. I will be visiting Southern France and Northern Italy in a week and a half.

Does anyone think there is any chance that the polish filled the swirls instead of correcting them and when he washed the car the swirls showed up again?

Let's just hope the Patron stays in the truck till after Detail Fest. Otherwise some there will be some serious hologramming on cars and maybe a few burns spots.

After reading about this thread, I decided to give my new Pro Blends a try. I just screwed mine onto a jug with just water in it but I noticed that it slowly leaks back into the bottle until there is none in the Pro Blend. I didn't have any trouble with it flowing back into the Pro Blend.

I think what the original poster is saying is that after squeezing an ounce of ONR into the Pro Blend, he turned over the entire bottle to pour the ounce of ONR into something but more than an ounce drained out of the Pro Blend. I am guessing when he turned the bottle over, the ONR kept...

Welcome aboard.
