Thanks for the replies! Ok. yeah I had planned to do a small spot first to test, i'll try starting with the XMT2 and a white pad and then try an orange pad if it still needs a bit more.

Hi everyone, Long time member, but mostly just a lurker heh. I'm getting ready next week to do a polish on my 2006 Rallye Red Civic Si (first time using my PC7424). I have all the XMT polishes and and apretty much every pad there is. The swirls are evident, but not nearly as bad as you would...

I should've gotten a pic beside it while you were midway so I could've said "I was there"! Fantastic job Carlos. Those engine pics don't do it justice, I was floored by how clean you got that engine looking. Great job sir. I've got Friday planned for my beast. Don't suppose you're off that day...

Haha. Didn't realize you were the same dude from 8thcivic.com :p

Sounding more and more like a detailing gathering. Well I certainly won't complain if it's my car! I'll bring the detailing products and the refreshments and the food. :cheers:

I had that once in my old car. Not sure what it was from, but it was definitely more than simple dirt or the typical film that develops on the inside of windows over time from breathing and such. I used a double dose (read: scrubbed it twice) of a 1:1 Water/Vinegar solution, scrubbed it with a...

You lucky arse. I only ever find dead bugs in mine :mad:

You should see him in person, dudes got serious pipes. I don't think he actually uses the Cyclo, but buffs everything by hand!

:cheers: I may take you up on that, your setup is so stylin. The rest of the day has gone downhill though. After I left your place, I noticed my brake and gas pedal felt like it was sticking to my sandal. Look down and sure enough, I had stepped in gum and it was smeared ALL over my brake and...

Cobra Indigo 6 Inch Microfiber Bonnets! Ok, can someone delete everyone's post in this thread except mine please? :D

I actually just got back from Nica's place. Met him for the first time :D Shot the #### with him for a bit, he offered advice on how to do certain areas of my car, some advice on products (Note to self: gonna hafta pick up some PB's Bug Squash). Such a nice guy, modest too. I was gawking at...

Are you kidding? I'd kill for that. I'm probably going to take it to work tonight and jack it up and do the wheels/wheelwells up nicely and do the engine. I don't care if I polished it while everyone stood around wacthing and drinking some beer (which i'd gladly bring). Just having some...

That's a relief. I was a little scared because I just put a pad on the PC, and started it up and touched my hand to it, and it felt really hot. I also forgot to ask: My front end is covered in the 3M front clear plastic film. There's no swirls so I don't think i'll polish that, possibly MAYBE...

Well, i'm getting ready to polish my 06 Civic Si this weekend. Been invited to a car show next weekend and I want to make sure she's looking her best. I'm going to use XMT #2, followed by #1 and then XMT Finishing Glaze topped with Pinnacle Souveran Paste. The swirls look fairly light so I...

That's the only place I had room. I keep my car immaculate but where I live is MESSY =\

Ugh that sucks. I would've broke down had I come out and seen that on my FG2.

Welcome to AGOL! Hanging around here, it's really easy to get "the bug" ;)

Yeah, that's exactly what I was looking for.

:righton:

I apply it that way as well. But then why aren't there bi-directional machines if that's the correct way of doing it?
