    Please help me make a buffer decision - voice of reason please!

    If the makita is giving you aches and pains for sure get something lighter. Aches and pains only get worse as you get older and 3-$400 bucks is well worth a future of less back pain. You could try using the flex pe-14 rotary. It's super light or I really enjoyed using my boss 21 this year on...

    Please help me make a buffer decision - voice of reason please!

    I'd say this isn't a bad idea. Just because it's a hobby doesn't mean time isn't an issue. I do our 33ft tiara every year and I'm not about to stick with say a porter cable just because I don't need it out for a customer fast. I want it done fast so that i can get it in the water and spend less...

    I cause swirls when polishing with DA, what am I doing wrong?

    Mike as always comes with a great response. The video too me looks like holograms not what we would consider here to be "swirls". I almost wonder if these existed on your finish already and maybe polishing lightly is giving enough clarity to see them now. You may want to use a polishing pad...

    Abrassive Scale for Marine31

    He's saying he wants to try the heavy cut followed by polishing with the gloss and color restorer. So that would possibly be ok but I can't say from experience. I use he heavy cut followed by the finish polish but also get great results with my boss 21 using the heavy cut on a megs mf polishing...

    Rupes swirl Finder pen VS Sungrip Pen vs Flex swirl finder

    I'm kind of interested in trying something like the rupes pen light. I currently have a tactical style surefire led dual intensity flashlight and I'm super happy with it but kind of want to try the smaller pen lights.

    CQuartz Questions

    The more coats the thicker it will be on the paint so do as many as you like. They say the protection won't last any longer for more coats but it will be a thicker sacrificial layer. Reload isn't needed. You want to use reload 1 hour after application if you plan to get they vehicle wet. I'd...

    What to do with this grill

    Yea my choices would be to scrub real real good and then try solution finish. If not that, and I typically never suggest the product, but maybe this could be a good plastidip candidate.

    Need a new product....

    I can't tell you how it works in your climate because my boat prep season is usually fairly cool, but I've switched to the marine 31 line as of last year and have loved it. Pretty much 0 dust off the compound and I've had great results with it using my pe14 3401 and boss 21. I typically only...

    Nice picture idea. You must live by me then because it snowed for me while I was polishing our boat getting ready to go in the water.

    Review: Essence topped with Uber Ceramic Coating

    I've noticed if you get to it early a lot of bugs just hose off. And if they dry on a little I don't need much more than a light wash with my wash mitt.

    Which buffer next? Need suggestions

    Well if you are looking to speed things up on large panels and it's a business you are currently running or trying to start up, for sure get a long throw. If you are just doing your own cars I'd say don't worry about it you have a great lineup. I have a gg6, flex 3401, flex pe-14, rupes mini...

    The infamous power of bird poo

    Dude I feel your pain. My old neighbor used to dump a total of a 5 gallon bucket of seed in the front and back yard twice a day and our houses nearly touched. Pigeons everywhere hundreds of them at all times. Glad I don't live there anymore lol.

    Cquartz question....

    I'm still in that boat that even diluted I get a streaky reload finish. I mixed up a sprayer of 1:1 and on my black VW CC I get streaks like crazy. Tried more product tried less product never got a desirable result.
