    Ultima products

    Have it ever since it was introduced. IMHO it is not better than clay. IMHO risk of marring paint is too high for my personal taste.

    jeweling vs burnishing

    Todd Helme, I am sorry that I will have to disappoint you by not giving you a chance to turn this into a circus like you do elsewhere. Also, please do not try to paint in public a picture of a prosecuted saint as truth is quite the opposite, because: a) I was not part of any flame wars you...

    jeweling vs burnishing

    killrwheels, OP's question was a) on definition of the terms, b) how to do to do it. There have been contributions on how to do it, and this was contribution on discussion about definition (you might be missing parts of it as you might not have followed discussion on that on other forum in...

    jeweling vs burnishing

    Problem with quoting, especially with quoting very small part of big post/thread that is somewhere else, is that things get uneven focus, spotlight can be brought to what one wants seen and everything else that is not wanted to be seen gets pushed into background darkness. Nature of human...

    jeweling vs burnishing

    Please re-read my post and noticed I too used word "introduction" and not "inventing or creating". After that please search archives of those same detailing forums that have been recently "introduced to these terms" and you will find these terms have been used by _many others_ in those _same_...

    jeweling vs burnishing

    Burnishing and jeweling are synonyms when it comes to automotive paint polishing. P.S. You will see some high visibility detailers on big forums, like Autopia, try to incorrectly claim the credit for introduction of these two terms in recent time. However, at least one of them has been around...

    Flex Review XC 3401

    You are correct that there is many many factors. Another big factor that many are forgetting is shape of surfaces on car, etc. That is why there is no silver bullet (tool) that will cover 100%, be all that and a bag of chips. There is no such thing in metal working, there is no such thing in...

    Flex Review XC 3401

    Asphalt, I believe you that your particular result turned out better with rotary on that hood. However, I do not feel one person's result on one hood can be extended to all users on all cars all the time. I have finished panels with rotary, Flex, Cyclo, and few other tools. Results were...

    Flex Review XC 3401

    1. I assume you have not looked at the surface processed correctly by Flex and rotary under microscope to be able to say with 100% confidence there are "microscopic inclusions that detract from overall reflectivity". Am I correct in my assumption? 2. I assume you haven't measured reflectivity...

    I know, but I am not doing it for those few, I am doing it for benefit of those who read and might end up mislead if only one side keeps being propagated. 3401 is designed by professionals for professionals with sole purpose in mind: quick, efficient, and flawless paint correction and polishing...

    FLEX XC3401 problem

    I too removed it from one of my units. Last time I checked there were no signs of stuff getting in. For some reason I have impression flow of air is preventing it. I easily can be wrong though so I will need to check again soon. What does inspection of yours shows?

    System One X3: Incredible ability to work on hot paint under sun

    I knew that System One X3 works great under sun as I often use it because of that ability, I rent so I don't have garage to work in nor much of a shade, and I live in Southern California. But I never knew it's full potential until I saw video below. Guy is detailing black car whose paint's...
