I think your issue is you want to see something left on the paint or you think you haven't put enough on. This led you to use too much product which over saturated your applicator and in turn, made the knocking down of high spots difficult (b/c every time you went over a high spot, you left more...

oops, forgot the clay right before the second dry!

what kind of black car are we talking about? I'd wash, then clay, use the WGPE, then the sealant. Some ppl don't like to clay a car unless they are going to polish. You should be ok provided you use plenty of lube and a mild clay, maybe even some Iron X before the clay to make sure you don't...

no, as long as a washer is present that's all you have to worry about. The Meg's plate has shorter loops which is supposed to help prevent heat buildup when using the meg's mf discs... so that much heat buildup after one pass is not normal...

did you install the compression washer that came with the backing plate? It was the cause of overheating and all it's associated issues on some PC's a while back...

Congrats Alex looks like you had a great time!

I don't think the AGO code is going anywhere. AG even emails it to you when you join and advertises it on their website... it's the codes like the Car and Driver one that get taken down if people keep posting them.

AGO free shipping over $95 or wait for one of the 3 hour free shipping blocks usually Fridays and Saturdays, but then the minimum is $125

How do you prevent cookie cutting? I'm starting to get that on my white cp pads too. I don't think I'm using more than 10-15 lbs of pressure...

also note that unless your prep was bad, diminished beading does not necessarily mean that your OC is gone. There are other things you can try before you polish and reapply. Check out Old Tiger's thread where he uses Iron X to rejuvenate the coating on a Yaris.

I just picked up a 2000 psi Karcher pw at Costco. The head that looks like a cone actually spins and provides much more effective cleaning than the other head. I cleaned some bad mold off the steps like it was nothing yesterday. If you swing it too fast, then you cut Olympic rings everywhere...

I've read that hyperpolish can really cut depending on the pad. Your paint might be too soft for that to finish down ready for a coating. You should have checked the finish under proper lighting before putting on the OC. Unfortunately, I think those are DA tick marks, which means you will have...

I'd love that Professional Detail bag since my products are all kept in the house. It would definitely save me from making a few trips back and forth.

KAIO is a great chemical paint cleaner. I find it works best if used a bit heavy and wiped off before it dries.

The Klasse twins have been around for a long time and work very well. Don't worry about KAIO, it is a very effective chemical cleaner but even with a white pad, it didn't remove some marring I had on soft paint. The KAIO preps the surface very well for KSG but it needs to be put on thin. Think...

no, it's more like 4-5 cars so you're using between 80-100ml per car

ya didn't take me too long to decide to just stick with OC once I saw the price. It's about double the cost per application and isn't even permanent.

to get full cleaning power you will need to use a machine and white polishing pad. MF pad will help a bit but you really need to work the product in if you are working by hand...

doesn't matter, just heat it to the point that you can get it out of one jar and into the others...

the question said "products" which to me means chemicals
