take a peek at allpressurewashers.com and see what they have. All the SunJoe/GreenWorks stuff is 'consumer' grade. I can't find the reference right now but I think the pumps are only rated to something like 500hr run-time MTBF. On the other side of the coin, 'pro' stuff is almost always gas...

>>> I have never cleaned performance summer tires, is this just a result of sticky tires? <<< No. I have P-Zero Corsa's on my fun car and they definitely do not do that. Some TufShine (and brush) cleans mine right up. I have Opti TireGel, 303 Balm, DG Tire Dressing and GTechniq T1 and NONE...

They all eventually stall if you apply enough pressure, pad size etc. The forced ones do not.

Also note that the GG6 is in a different, much lower price level than everything else mentioned. All the top-tier units hover around $400

Most everyone who has 'reviewed' the 5000C says the same thing: NON-forced mode is pretty useless for any sort of correction/polish/etc. Actually, I have one that I haven't had a chance to use yet but I bought it w/ the expectation that I'd pretty much only use forced mode (I have a GG6 too)

Least aggressive first. I think WGTSR is more aggressive than Speed which is why I mentioned it. You have a new car and it probably doesn't need all that much. You can't put clearcoat back on. Post some decent pictures and let the more experienced people here see what you're dealing with...

I'd give myself some options by getting WG finishing glaze and most likely, some HD Speed. I don’t know what the swirls are but why limit your options and have to take off more than you want on a new vehicle? If *just* the HD Speed gets it done, then you've saved.

I'd suggest simply getting a gallon (or so) size sprayer (ala Home Depot/Lowes). A LOT more water to saturate the surface w/o refilling etc

OMG, another VPI machine owner. I have a, um, 16.5 machine and SOTA Vacuum Sapphire table. Small world!

Mark, try these.......... Amazon.com : 2oz Travel Size Plastic Empty Bottles/Containers With Flip Cap - Set of 6 - 2 Ounce : Other Products : Everything Else

I don’t know about a full-up trigger sprayer but I have used a small 2 or 4oz fine mist spray bottle (no 'trigger'). It doesn't put a lot of product down. Amazon.com : 4oz Cobalt Blue Plastic PET Boston Round Fine Mist Spray Bottles (12-Pack w/ Black Sprayers); Labels Included : Beauty You...

Good thing I only do this for weekend recreation and not for a living. :) If I did it for a living, I'd find a better bottle or as the other gentleman said, use till broken, toss, replace. Factor it in as a supply 'consumable' to your business model.

I mix and use only enough for the day's worth of wheel cleaning and then rinse out the bottle/sprayer.

Get some IronX (or equiv product), use as directed. Almost certain will need to followup w/ clay or clay mitt/towel

Can you give the URL for the larger suede 'towel' ?

yes, use less. I use OCW and that happens when I go too heavily (esp if the towel/buff is getting saturated). I usually buff afterwards anyway.

I just got some Gyeon LeatherShield which uses the suede applicators like most of the exterior coatings. Are those suede applicators cleanable (I suppose yes if you clean them w/ APC before the coating sets-up) and reusable?

I got a solid New England winter (Nov->Apr) out of Powerlock w/ 476s on top (along w/ some OCW spray). Time to do it again for the summer although I think I'll try Duragloss 601/111

may have dried out a bit. try something like short spritz of QD and go at it w/ a rolling pin to soften it up a bit

Same w/ Ultima. Those directions are 0.5oz per 22oz water which I translate to 0.75 per 32 approx (since I use a 32oz bottle) and that is 3oz per gallon.
