Well guys this is the result after today's work. I think it looks good considering its a cloudy overcast day in Baltimore.

I forgot to mention I have a wool pad and a microfiber bonnet. Would it be better to put the microfiber wool bonnet over the wool pad to apply the wax?

I used an orange pad with the SIP and a white pad with the Super Polish. I have two red's and a white pad left. How would you recommend putting on the paint sealant and the wax?

Thanks very much!

Hello, I had a question about what order I should use the products I have. These are the products: Menzerna Super Intensive Polish, Menzerna Super Finish, Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant and Collinite's 845. Should the order I do them be SIP, Super Finish, Collinite 845 and then the...

You're correct. It's a city tree and I can't do anything about it. The coating looks like it would be the best option in my situation.

Excellent information! I have all the information needed to get the job done. Thanks so much.

Sorry I don't mean to be confusing. When I think of fruit I'm thinking about the actual nuts that fall on the truck. They leave the red stain after impact that is in the pictures. I'm trying to remove those red stains. The pictures I posted is what the truck looks like after a wash. Basically...

I haven't had a chance to try the tips in this thread because its been raining but I've been dealing with this tree for about 20 years and every fall its the same thing. Since I've been washing my vehicles way longer then I've been a member of this forum I've been using different detergents\car...

Thanks for all your responses. The pictures were taken before I did the work. I'll try the damp towel method and let everyone in on the results. Thanks!

Good Morning, I recently parked under a callery pear tree which really did a number on my paint. Evidently the birds and squirrels love eating part of the fruit on this tree and dropping the rest. So I attached some photo's of the damage and I'm looking for advice on how to remove these...

Excellent information! This is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks.v:dblthumb2: I have read a few threads where guys weren't to impressed with the CCS pads and preferred the flat pads. My truck is in pretty good condition. Would it be better to put a microfiber bonnet over the foamed wool...

I have a question for those of you that have performed paint correction on a 2005 Dodge Ram pickup. I know not all clear coats are the same but I was curious if you considered the paint on this truck to be a hard or a soft clear coat? I think I found a good complete kit in this product. Menzerna...

Yea I was reading where if you used the adapter listed on the link I posted, it would allow someone to attach a 2 ¾” backing plate to your DA polisher which would allow someone to use a 4" pad. You mentioned that if someone wanted to use a 4" pad they should keep there XP around. Would you still...

Bunky, If you had a DA polisher and wanted to go with a 4" pad, couldn't you just buy the DA adapter, a 2.75" hook and loop backing plate and use a 4" pad. I was looking off of this page when getting this information. CCS Spot Buffs 4 Inch Foam Pad Kit Free Bonus! Pat

Wow! What an informative post! Thanks again. :urtheman: After reading your last post, I'm now leaning more toward the Flex 3401 over the 3403.

Thanks for all your help. I do have an additional question. You mention not to apply the wax with a rotary but use a DA or by hand. By finishing out with a DA, do you also mean not to use the rotary to remove the wax once applied by hand. Does this go for waxes that need to haze over as well...

redg35, Do you prefer menzerna over the meguiars? I've heard good things about the menzerna products but I'm not sure what menzerna product would be good for minor swirl removal. I'm off topic here but I see you have twin turbo's on your G35. Do you ever go to capital raceway? Thanks for...

I've been reading where guys are using the smaller foam pads with the 3403. I really like The Edge 2000 Wave Foam pads (The Edge 2000 Wave 6 inch Foam Pads are double-sided buffing and polishing pads for dual action or rotary car polishers and buffers. but the Orange pad only comes in 8". I'd...

Honestly, the more threads I read about the XMT line and people's opinion of the product I'm becoming discouraged. It sounds like alot of people are impressed with the poorboy's product, especially when used on a metallic or flaked paint like what I have. Now it's a matter of what poorboys...
