    Wolfgang Finishing Glaze 3.0 Closer to which Menzerna Polish?

    I just used up all my PO106FA, and I am contemplating which I should stock up on, PO106FA or Wolfgang Finishing Glaze. Knowing where each of the above product is relative to one another would assist my purchasing decision.

    Wolfgang Finishing Glaze 3.0 Closer to which Menzerna Polish?

    According to the sales website: [/SIZE][/B] The key word is "Nano". Does this mean that the WF FG polish is somewhat similar in cut to the Menzerna Nano Polish PO106FA??? I know that both the WG FG and PO106FA are grey in color and both remove 2500 grit marks. Most importantly, both carry...

    *NEW* DP Poli Coat Paint Sealant!

    Good to know. So I wouldn't use my expensive pads with this sealant! ;)

    LC backing plate comparisons - new(er) DA design

    I have used my old style LC 6" backing plate via the Kevin Brown Method, with both foam and Surbuf pads. I simply reinforced the unit by taking out the nylon washer from the screw threads, then fill the crevice around the screw head inside the backing plate plastic with super glue. The super...

    This weeks orders

    They are great and finish the paint extremely nicely. They require some getting used to and you will need to adjust usage according to your preference. None of the foam cutting pads come close in correction power offered by the Surbuf pads, and foam pads that actually have similar correction...

    Took mike philips advise!!!

    Whoah, you must be rubbing very hard previously to taking on this advice! I hope you don't clean your skin with that kind of pressure ;) By the way, I am not an advocate of high-end waxes. But I do use expensive waxes and I find that most of the really expensive waxes require less effort to...

    Meguiar's D151 vs. Menzerna Power Finish

    D151 is a cleaner wax, potentially with fillers. Most cleaner waxes are not designed to be "filling products", but their filling abilities are derived from their abrasives and polishes. D151 offers slight protection because it leaves behind wax. As mentioned probably a million times on the web...

    Any Need For Meguiar's D151?

    D151 is a one step product that is rotary-compatible and comes conveniently in a gallon jug. Those are the reasons for D151. It is not the ideal product for the enthusiast who desires from detailing products the extra cutting power for absolute correction, the fine jeweling ability for ultra...

    For Mike: NXT 2.0 or Wolfgang Sealant 3.0?

    I believe NXT 2.0 has both abrasive and chemical cleaners in it. Chemically, its cleaner has given it the ability to remove tape residue. It also has some very slight abrasive cleaner to allow the permanent removal of very light clear coat scuffing marks, as confirmed by an IPA wipe down. It is...

    For Mike: NXT 2.0 or Wolfgang Sealant 3.0?

    Have you used Wolfgang Sealant 3.0? What do you think about it? I have both NXT 2.0 and Wolfgang Deep Gloss Sealant 3.0. I am contemplating which to use. I will top both with either Estate Fuzion Wax or a competitor's boutique wax. While people claim that NXT 2.0 can be layered with itself...

    For Mike: NXT 2.0 or Wolfgang Sealant 3.0?

    Gloss and shine aside, because WG wins hands down, which sealant lasts longer, WG Sealant 3.0 or NXT 2.0? I read that NXT 2.0 has a small amount of polish and cleaner, which makes layering not as effective as a pure sealant. Other than that, which one lasts longer? Which do you prefer?

    first time with a rotary. yikes!

    If your product flies incredibly far, then I suspect you are starting your Makita too fast. The thing I like about the Makita is that you could set it as low as 600rpm while at the same time engaging the soft start to further slow down pad rotation. I have never had my product shoot far by...

    Need Help with ?Micromarring?

    Those nicks and tiny marring may have been the deeper points of the original swirls that were not previously removed. Sometimes these nicks and tiny scratches may appear shallow, but are actually Random-Isolated-Deep-Scratches (RIDS) of the original swirls and scartches. If you have used 205...

    Wet sanded door and Fender

    Looks cool dude. I really enjoyed wetsanding as well. It was a fun and rewarding process. But looking back at the amount of work required, I don't think I will be doing it again.

    Rotary only??? 3M Ultrafina

    I have used Ultrafina with the PC-XP without any adverse effects. The reason why a rotary is "needed" for Ultrafina is because the abrasives need both heat and friction in order to diminish properly. With the DA, it will probably not break down the diminishing abrasives quickly enough. Not that...

    CCS vs. Flat pads

    There is some truth to that, but it all depends on the method, such as pressure, product used, and the type of machine being utilized. The beauty of the aggressive HT pad is that if you find it "too" aggressive, you could always turn the machine down a notch and/or use a less aggressive...

    Menzerna Polishing Advice

    The paint on newer cars may appear to be scratch and swirl free, but regular washing from either the factory or the retailer will instill some extremely fine hazes on the paint work. These hazes are not visible to the naked eyes, but will affect the clarity of the paint work. You can either fill...

    Which is more aggressive: UC or SIP/PO203S?

    Which is more aggressive if used with the PCXP and orange pad on non-ceramic clear coat paint? I have both, but I have never, nor could I, compare the two side by side to determine which is more aggressive. I need to order some mid-high aggressive polish. I think Ultimate Compound used with...
