    Pad usage for SS Toyota Paint

    I assumed this would be the case. However, being new to the whole polisher, I was not sure how it would go. I removed some minor scratches with Megs UC, then was not sure if I needed to hit it with Megs Polish...until I did a panel and realized the results. I will say I have a whole new...

    Pad usage for SS Toyota Paint

    I did not, wish I would have bought some Aquawax. However, compared to other years of doing the van by hand, it went much better. I also was able to see better results.

    Pad usage for SS Toyota Paint

    I did my wifes Sienna this weekend. Everything went really well. The only gripe I have, though small, is the Griots clay is very soft. I used detailer on my hand but still it stuck to my hand/fingers greatly. Now I guess I will see how well the 601/105 stands up to the elements.

    What does everyone use to apply Duragloss? Cotton or MF applicators?

    Megs UC then Duragloss 601/105?

    I am going to use Megs UC to remove oxidation on single stage Toyota paint using my new Griots polisher. Do I need to do anything in between that and applying Duragloss 601/105? I know its a Duragloss is a polish but will the paint look good, if all goes well, if I apply the Duragloss by hand...

    I decided I am going to buy Lake Country CCS pads. 4-Orange, 4-White, 4-Red. This should be a suitable start for the oxidation removal and so on...

    Pad usage for SS Toyota Paint

    It was about 14x14. I will say it was pretty windy at the time. I used detailer and misted it which worked well.

    Pad usage for SS Toyota Paint

    I washed the Sienna, could barely tell after the fact. I clayed down the rear panel and used UC by hand and it turned out really well. I followed with Ultimate Polish then onto Ultimate Wax. Complete night and day. But took a ton of work to do one panel. The UC dries out rather quickly even...

    Pad usage for SS Toyota Paint

    I am going to buy Lake Country CCS pads, 12 pads total. Trying to figure out what I need is a bit confusing. I know there is oxidation but I don't think it is the worst of worst. Anyone here use CCS pads that can lend some guidance on pad choices? This is the plan for the Sienna: Wash Clay...

    Pad usage for SS Toyota Paint

    Just so I understand, use Duragloss 601 followed by a coat of Duragloss 501 or Duragloss 105? Is this also a good combo for my Infiniti which has a clearcoat?

    Pad usage for SS Toyota Paint

    How is BlackFire holding up? I was thinking about buying everything separately. I see that Collonite is supposed to be a good product. Can anyone offer up a suggestion to protect the finish once I get it to that point. I am thinking of using Megs UC to clean it up as I know it worked previously...

    Pad usage for SS Toyota Paint

    I am looking to buy this kit as my first investment to better looking vehicles, Griots Garage Swirl Remover Kit. I notice it comes with only three pads. I would like to buy a six pack of extra pads. My wifes Toyota Sienna has single stage white paint and is oxidized, but nothing excessive. I can...
