Great work... Just not a fan of clean Jeeps. :) Needs a little mud or something!

Thanks. I love it, and wanted to keep using it each time, but was concerned it would abrade the paint too much over time. I know it's a very light abrasive, but I'm new to this. Appreciate it.

maybe a dumb question, but for both BF and HD/3D Speed, is it ok to use them on the same car a couple or few times a year without taking too much clear coat?

This is what I was hoping/expecting, but wanted confirmation. Thank you!

So, I used this for the first time, and have been trying to wash my pads. They seem ‘clean’, but the formerly white pads are now purple. Dawn, pad cleaning soap, don’t seem to do anything. I’m considering just making these pads permanent HD Speed Pads from now on. Is this normal? I’m pretty...

I’m in Katy too! Cool. I’ll send you a PM.

Jay, I'm in Houston too. If you're near the west side at all, we should meet up. I'm kind of new to this too (like 3 months in), and like you, have used some of the CG white pads, but haven't had any issues. It's still considered a polishing pad I think.

When I'm home, I use a Ryobi pressure washer to wash and initial rinse, then rinse again with the Hydroshot and distilled water. So much cheaper than the CR setups.

If none of those work, how about actual makeup remover wipes? (Like Neutrogena wipes) Then quickly follow up with something like 303 plastic treatment so the remover doesn't dry it out.

Could y'all take it to PM please? I keep getting emails. :) :)

Ha. Ok. That's what I was using on my DA. I'll try it on a Terry cloth now as you suggest. Thank you!

Wow! You don't have to pay for it. I'll send you my address and let me know the charges.

Where do you live? I bet someone would be happy to swing by if in the same town.

That's my plan! Otherwise, I'd probably just live with it. :)

Wow. Thanks again Mike!! Last question, what would be a quality compound for this scenario?

I use a Worx Hydroshot and source distilled water. Cheap and easy. The added bonus is that it’s portable, so I’ve even taken on toad trips. I get some funny looks in hotel parking lots, but it’s a small price to pay.

Thanks Mike!!! I have an unopened tube of ScratchX 2.0 (like 3 months old so new). Would that qualify as a quality compound?

So, my wife was loading oversized stuff into the trunk of my A6 (2018). On the deck lid right in front of the trunk was a new scratch. I was hopeful because I couldn't 'catch' it with my fingernail. I went after it with Griot's 3" Correcting pad (orange) and Meg's Ultimate Compound. It made...

Can I make a macro that updates this thread every day with something like, “Watched 10-12 YouTube videos on detailing and paint correction”?

Does it spray better in another bottle other than the OEM bottle? I hate how blotchy it sprays... big globs instead of a mist. I love the product though.
