    Rotary polisher pads

    gibbs try the 3m pads the 6" ones... you will like them....i use the 6" ultrafina pads only for finishing some tips not related to the pad being used but will work for you.. if you insist on using flat pads 5,5 flat pad will work with no buffer hops compared to bigger flat ones... so dont get...

    pressure washer foam

    yes it splashes soap allright but wont make clingy foam a foam gun will give you much more foam but won't cling for long less than a minute give or take if you need a thick foam that wont just slide down but cling for a minute or two to the car you will have to invest in a foam cannon

    Collinite-Marque D’Elegance Carnauba Paste Wax #915

    Re: Collinite-Marque D’Elegance Carnauba Paste Wax #915 I think he meant 'muted flakes'... I recalled a thread in autopia someone applied one coat of 476 the flakes pop but after a second layer he found that the wax actually muted the flakes and it doesnt shine as good as the first coat..do a...

    Sealant over Glaze?

    @Kris I see.. I agree with you on that.. Many people dont even see swirls and waterspots on paint as a problem.. My dad is the best example of this he can stand swirls on his paint but hates dirty crevices and blurred windshield.. As long as i make the crevices shine and polish his windshield...

    Sealant over Glaze?

    I really dont get the anti-glaze sentiment over the detailing forums here...it seems to signify improper ethic and unprofessional conduct.. I see it as a faster and economical way to detail a car..faster meaning you dont need to work it in hard to get results as applying glaze is almost like...

    Want to buy a DA Polisher but..

    you may want to get it from one of the UK based dealers..one of them even come up with a compact rotary polisher which is really neat... Then again i would advise you to get a polisher in your own country..because if you have problem with your machine you can fix it easily...i live in indonesia...

    Completely new to this; need a kit...

    no you wont... you can always go hand mode for those tight places... flex is an awesome machine and very versatile..even though function wise a RO/DA is catching up or even overtake..i think you'd still appreciate the experience of polishing with a flex..the power and the smoothness (no...

    Lake Country Ulti Mitt with ONR

    I dont see the merit of the lc gs cubes.. Pressure actually makes the cubes bunch up and create no space between cubes.. I dont see how dirts could be trapped between the cubes.. I never used hd gs but i used ace hardware gs and i feel the ace gs to be softer.. If anything i feel it's the...

    Lake Country Ulti Mitt with ONR

    The new mitt specifically designed for onr is 'black' and has the same ppi with the ultimitt i use.. I guess more ppi means more stain.. Grout sponges are of lower ppi and releases dirt/stain so well.. You may opt for the lower ppi red ultimitt which is 80 ppi (still fall into Dr G's 80-100ppi...

    Lake Country Ulti Mitt with ONR

    It's the softest washing foam i've ever used (the gold 100ppi one).. I wish i have bigger hand, as a big hand will create more space between the cubes.. The downside is with sponge you expect dirts will release easily.. Not with ultimitt.

    How to properly run a Dual Action Polisher???

    Yes Yes to more pressure means more power But...more power to a rotating pad than a non-rotating pad you may have confused 15-20 pounds with 15-20 kg... 15-20 pounds is only about 6-8 kg pressure..the difference is not too noticable if you are not used to polishing.. I would suggest that you...

    Meguiar's New Ultimate Wax- Paste

    applying with DA and CCS gold pad may help...you'll go really thin you can only see the film under the sun or led torch.. or the wax simply react badly with the base or sensitive to moisture what have you put as a base ?
