    Pad inducing micro swirls in the paint?

    Well those are just test spots, so I didn't think I had to clean the pads out because I hadn't used them. Of course I did wash them before performing another test spot.

    Pad inducing micro swirls in the paint?

    Well, I haven't used those products yet. I am currently using chem guys hex logic pads and Vline polishes. I have been told that their pads aren't the best and that I should probably go with a MG micro cutting pad along with rupes yellow and white foam finishing pad. My main concern though is...

    Pad inducing micro swirls in the paint?

    I am getting out a lot of the major defects but for some reason the pads are leaving behind micro swirls. I don't think my towels are causing the micro swirls as I am wiping off the polish in one direction and they are fresh out of the bag and are decent quality (CG). I have tried all different...

    Trouble with 2016 Mustang (Black) paint.

    (I am using 3 pads but just for testing because those are the only pads I have currently) The results I got from the chemical guys orange hex pad from from V36 were many many micro scratches from the product. As a result I figured that that pad was too aggressive for my paint. I then went with...

    Trouble with 2016 Mustang (Black) paint.

    Yeah I made sure to decontaminate the paint. I also removed the possible iron contaminants. The car is only 5 months old, so the paint was in pretty good condition. Maybe the Chemical Guys orange hex pad is different from the orange pad you are talking about? I have literally tried everything...

    Trouble with 2016 Mustang (Black) paint.

    Yes, I completely decontaminated the paint. I also made sure to get the iron contaminants out with IronX. I started off with an orange hex pad and VSS(Scratch and swirl remover) which completely destroyed my paint. I then went with V36 and a white pad. That kind of cleared the marring. From...

    Trouble with 2016 Mustang (Black) paint.

    Hey guys! I am completely new to detailing. I just recently purchased a TorqX along with the Chemical Guys Vline polishes and hex pads. I have had a hard time trying to perfect the condition of the paint. I stopped using the orange(most aggressive) hex pad because it was way too firm for the...
