    Swirls need some help.....

    I'm curious to why you kept stepping to finer products and waxes if the swirls weren't removed? You can usually tell if there's swirls before you do your final wax...

    Cleaning over vinyl lettering

    5.5" pads are what I use 99%of the time, I find they're a good mix of area coverage and maneuverability. I know pin striping and vinyl lettering are different, but the same idea. Today I polished over these stripes with a B&S orange flat pad, rupes 15 on 6 and a compound equivalent to fg400...

    Cleaning over vinyl lettering

    You could tape off the individual letters for best results, but to be honest I've polished over hundreds of letters using a white pad and swirl removal and it works fine. It even brightens up the letters

    Cleaning over vinyl lettering

    I find you can easily go over most vinyl lettering with a swirl remover if you don't push too heavily but to be safe just tape the letters off

    Driving behind someone, what frustrates you?

    Someone tossed a lit cigarette out their window in front of me and I saw it bounce off my painted bumper. Luckily no mark but it's infuriating

    Risk vs reward

    I see tons of these clear bras and can gaurentee you 98.62% of people do NOT follow proper care procedures and they end up looking terrible. These bad looking films I would assume lower the value of the vehicle as the average customer is not capable/willing to remove or replace the film and just...

    Glazes & Jewels = Waste of time

    I hear people doing the fg400, 2500 then 4000 but I see no point on the second step. Fg400, 4000, beer. Is a good 3 step polish. I don't use glazes or anything with fillers either. I do see a purpose for glazes but just not for the vehicles I work on
