well, finished after working about 8 hrs not including wash and prep time. Learned a few things and had a few faux pas. Used WG swirl removal kit, and WG paint sealant. lc da ccs orange pad for the swirl removal and white for the glaze. used a red pad for the sealant (by hand). First, I...

not even 1/2 way done and exhausted. Agh. Also, stupid sun keeps coming out. Alright, enough complaining. Time to push on :)

Well, I am expecting my shipment from AGO containing a couple pads that I will need to do my first ro polisher detail on my car. been waiting for this day almost all summer. A little nervous. I'll post up pics, but its a silver car and it is in fair shape so difficult to photograph esp. since...

when someone taps their brakes when I'm tailgating them. The nerve!

I fell victim to this just yesterday. Hope I didn't bust it.

I would not think that you would want to risk it. Just tape off and protect from any overspray. No need to Iron-x polycarb or any other non-painted surface.

here are a couple of cars in my work lot that I thought I would click a pic of to show some surface issues. I guess just some typical swirl marks. Also find it difficult to see these on anything but a dark color.

Thanks, guess I'm still learning the purpose of each of these products. So, in future after I remove swirls, polish and seal and want to just use a single product to do light polishing and seal at same time is when I would look to an AIO? Also what is confusing me a little is that the...

here are a few pics of my car after wash. It is not garaged and is my dd. Hard to get good pics. Going to have to figure out how to do that better. I am preparing to clay and then anxious to use my (new to me) first gen pc do polisher. I already have purchased the lc backing pad...

hey, I am also in Buffalo area. do you still detail? Last post was late last year so just wondering if yer still around? Bill

Sorry for the long wait. Live in North Buf (Kenmore)

bold added by me. not a word. I just could not help myself. That is great that you hired a woman. Hope it works out for you both :)

1988 Pontiac Grand Am. bought brand new. This is not a pic of my actual car but this is pretty close. I didn't have pin stripes or rear luggage rack on trunk. I'll never forget how upset I made the sales guy. Even after I told him I didn't want the undercoat he still included it and did all...

It will virtually eliminate them

OK, drum roll please... I am very happy with the results. Absolutely no milky areas and near perfect uniform coating. GP49, you may be right. I may never know exactly why I was getting that milky look but at least now I can move on in my headlight project.

OK, doesn't seem to be much activity on this thread as there once was but I am going to do my best to document my project if nothing more than for my own sake. I had a chance to remove the spar coating from the "bad" headlight and polish it in preparation for another go with the spar/ms mix...

OK, I'm officially frustrated. The good news is one of the two headlights came out ok, albeit with a couple little spots which I will describe with pics. Not sure whether I can just live with it, fix just the spots in question, or redo the whole thing. The other headlight however displayed...

OK, finally had a chance to coat the headlights for the (*cough*), third time. I mixed up my spar/ms to 7:3 and used foam brush. I got a nice even coat on both and they are now drying in my garage. I gave them a quick look over right after doing it and looks like it is going to come out this...
