That's a good point. I can only remember having a problem twice with product staining and I believe both times I was using a pressure washer. I'll have to test this out next time I clean the set of wheels I had an issue with. Sent from my iPhone using Autogeekonline mobile app

Ive used a color changing wheel cleaner that would sometimes do the same thing you're describing. It left a rust colored stain on the part of the wheel that the product ran down after I had already rinsed it and moved on to the next wheel. What worked for me was fighting fire with fire so to...

Not to mention Griots is also coming out with the 3" HD backing plate for the GG6 to make it more user friendly Sent from my iPhone using Autogeekonline mobile app

I'm with Paul. I also had a customer who just had a repaint that I had wait 30 days. I guess even though there is truth to it on older finishes, today it has become an old wives tale as far as newer finishes? Awesome to know. I will definitely be buying some when Autogeek stocks it. Sent from...

Well I guess I've been living under a rock. Thanks for the info! Would you happen to know the durability of the protection? Sent from my iPhone using Autogeekonline mobile app

Exactly my thoughts. Fresh paint and paint protection doesn't go hand in hand. But if they found a way to protect paint and still let it breathe then they're doing everything right at 3D Sent from my iPhone using Autogeekonline mobile app

Wasn't paying attention and thought what elderado posted was your pictures. From your picture it's still kind of hard to tell but if it turns white like you said then it's most likely clear coat failure. Sent from my iPhone using Autogeekonline mobile app

Do you have pictures? And was it a repaint? Sometimes tree sap will bubble up and it can be mistaken for clear coat if you've never seen it before. I have personally never seen clear coat bubble on a factory paint job but have seen it on quite a few repaints. Sent from my iPhone using...

I asked a question similar to this or too long ago as my new truck wheel wells have the fabric lining. Pressure washing is definitely the easiest way to clean them. And several people mentioned lightly spraying the wheel well with a dressing as a protectant.

What were you using as a lubricant? I have found that when using soap and water it doesn't really do much. Used with a clay lube though, and the paint turns out as smooth as using a regular clay bar. Hope that helps you

BlackFire has an aio protectant as well as a trim and tire sealant

I can do that. Maybe show the polisher in action with the thicker pads vs the new ThinPros?

Thank you. You still have a great machine in the mini Bigfoot. I just hope to encourage more people to knock the dust off of the Griots 3" and give it another shot. I will do some testing with the white polishing pads tomorrow to see if I get the same light correction I would achieve with the...

Thank you!

Hey everyone! This review was unplanned, but after my experience, feel it's of importance to a certain group of people.... Any person who has purchased the Griots 3" polisher. The Griots 3" just found its soulmate and hidden talent. Lake Country ThinPro pads and.... paint correction? I...

How much is the difference? It may have to do with the viscosity of each product. The dressing I would think would be thicker, therefore require more water? Not sure which bottle suggests more water but it's a wild guess pending if they're product specific bottles

Paint correction aside, one advantage of long throws is the wear and tear on your body. The Flex is called "The Beast" for good reason. It will give you a workout. If you're in shape it shouldn't be a big issue. But for people with back or shoulder problems it could be very irritating. Long...
