Thanks everyone! Definitely led me in the right direction!

I have a waterless wash question - Sunday I detailed my truck from top to bottom, Optimum NRWW, Opti-Seal as a drying aid, followed by some OCW. Man it was looking great! Fast forward to Tuesday when I was driving and there was a light drizzle in the air, not really raining per se, just a light...

I like Wolfgang Exterior Trim sealant, had great luck with it...

I stick with Optimum Products on everything paint related, just kind of got started with the by chance I guess. The only exceptions are Wolfgang Uber Trim sealant on trim and Sonax motor Côte on wheel wells after cleaning with Optimum Power-Clean. Also use Tuf Shine on tires.

I love Tuf Shine! The extra time spent applying far offsets the durability IMO...

Would you prime before using Pinnacle Advanced Finishing Polish on an LC Thinpro pad?

Wow, that looks sketchy! You can tell by the grammar, and who has "lungs and hearing" surgery and then hosts a Cancer seminar which requires 3 vehicles?

That doesn't seem like a very good deal on any level...

I am getting GG6 soon as well. A lot of people chimed in with great advice and many helpful links to "how to" in the thread below... http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/griot%92s-garage-polishers-boss-6-da-3-da/102966-gc-6-pre-buy-questions.html This certainly helped me a bunch and answered a...

Big fan of OCW. I wax on some pretty hot days in the shade of the garage, not near the temps in AZ, but haven't noticed any streaking. I think Nick or Mike said once that it's good to use products from the same manufacturer as they are usually designed to compliment each other. I certainly...

I use ONRWW for maintenance washes, so I never really have to do a "real wash" unless I am doing Wheels and Tires. Like a few others have mentioned, I used Opti-Seal as a drying aid this last weekend and was totally knocked out by the shine! Definately going to use Opti-Seal from now on when I...

Two - Collinite #845 and Optimum Car Wax...

I use ONRW&W with the Cobra Plush Microfiber Towels, and occasionally a Wash Mitt on the lower panels, followed by a Waffle Weave Guzzler towel. I have had great results with this method. I rarely break out the Power Washer anymore and wash my truck the "old way" anymore, unless I am doing...

I've had great luck with Aquapel, I applied it 6-months ago and it's still going strong! Was easy to apply too...

Man I have never been so glad I asked these questions BEFORE I bought something! I've definitely been enabled to succeed with all the help I've received!! Heh, nice rhyme lol...

Thanks Mike! You really should consider a career in detailing, and possibly contributing to a kick-ass detailing website and forum... I think you have the knack, and would be really great at it!! <jk> :xyxthumbs:

Last question (I think!) :-) Should I go with the 7/8" or 1-1/4" Hydro-Tech pads? I don't know what the reasons and applications for the thicknesses are? Apologies if this is in some of the links Mike posted, I haven't had the chance to look through them yet...

Wow! Thanks everyone and especially Mike! Help like this is one of the many reasons I buy ALL my stuff from Autogeek! And special thanks to everyone for having patience with a beginner!

Thanks everyone, this is why this forum/community is so awesome. Great No-nonsense advice! Now I have to find a good "fine cut polish" as Mike suggested... Anyone have any suggestions?

I've decided to buy the GG6" HD, This will be my first polisher, from what I have read it is very good for first-timers new to machine polishing. My plan is to use it to apply Pinnacle Paintwork cleansing lotion and then Collinite #845. I have a couple of questions: I have a full-size RAM...
