Thanks guys, quite a surprise to see this post :)

Wow. Outstanding. Amazing setup and procedures, you sure know what you are doing. Best regards

No Sir, my female Akita, almost nine yrs. old now, called Milky. It is kinda rare, since she's all white. I'm a big fan of Akitas, silent, loyal, trusty dogs, and good with kids.

I had problems with BS cutting and finishing MF pads, and velcro issues, wearing out a lot faster. Indeed, it cuts a lot more. But when I need more cut than 21mm on 7in pads, I grab a rotary, it is just my style. It is very common the chinese 21mm knock offs coming with 5in BP. But, imho, I...

Agreed. 21mm with 5in BP becomes a pad eater, lot of heat build up. I used to do that for a while, never went back. I'm thinking about buying a 15mm for using 6in pads.

Nice work, Aaryn! I've been getting a lot of work like this lately, people only bring their cars to detail when they can't stand looking at it, and usually black cars. Probably due to the economical crisis, they look for the cheapest, get the worst, and then try to fix it when the deal is done...

Cutting compounds. Griot's FCC I still don't have it, though.

Thanks a lot for the review. Please keep us posted with your thoughts.

Hi Kitty Regarding cleaning alcantara Cleaning Alcantara and general maintenance | Alcantara best regards

I don't know, man, but I've been buying from AG for years, and never had a problem that wasn't solved. International shipping as well. It takes one or two days for them to figure out shipping charges, but package sizes and merchandise weight varies, it has to be done manually. Imho, you are not...

I found out that it leaves oily residue when ambient temperature is over 30C. At least in my personal experience, I avoid using in hot environment. Also, black cars show it more. With the 476S, I had a slightly better result leaving it in the fridge for one hour before using it. I have the same...

Bem vindo, amigo lusitano.

I've been using it for couple months, amazing light. CRI (Color Rendering Index) of 95, it can remain on for a long time, and when fully charged it'll take hours before recharging. I use it for polishing as well. Pleasant yellowish tone, I believe its 4300K, it seems to show more swirls than...

We're close, Menzerna SHC300, FG400, Meguiars M100 and M101, Scholl Concepts S3 Gold XXL, Sonax CutMax, Koch Chemie H8, Norton XtraCut and Lincoln's HiCut+ (Brazilian brand). But the go to would be FG400, Koch Chemie H8 and Lincoln HiCut+. Sonax Cutmax I'm increasingly liking it, it cuts a lot...

There you go, I think it sums up.

The 21mm throw is hard on pads, even if you use the Chinese Rupes knock offs it will wear out pads fast. With the 21mm throw, you have to use Rupes pads or pads designed for it, like LC HD line or B&F Urotecs. The 15mm orbit is less forgiving, in case you want to play around with different pads.

Thanks a lot for all the help over the last years, fast anf friendly replies, always solving problems on the behalf of the consumers. God bless you on your new endeavour, we'll sure miss you.

Welcome, Sir "Appearance enhancement", I liked that, lol!

On heavily swirled, hard paint, Rupes 21, mf pads (cutting or finishing pads, the spot test will show) and M100. I've been obtaining impressive results, almost LSP ready.

To Velocitybts This thread is really interesting, learned a lot here. All the info you presented was informative, rich in details, and your concern about coating issues after application is extremely valid. I never thought about reocurring water spots behind the coating, but I had one case and...
