How does this compare to PB Spray & Wipe? What gives a better gloss?

Did not have time for a full wash and dry this morning so I wiped the car down with PB spray & wipe. Car was just washed 2 days ago so it was not too bad, just had a bit of pollen and light dust. Initially, I was going to go over the car again with FK425, but the PB spray & wipe left a finish...

The edgeless MF have a special ultra dense weave loop specifically designed for polish or wax removal that grab polish or wax residue without bunching up. In addition, there are no edges that could potentially marr soft paint - but its really the type of weave that I was looking for.

thanks - they have them in stock - exactly what I was looking for

Dont mean to get off topic on this thread - have you tried the cyan or tangerine HT on soft paint? I am trying to find a pad that cuts as good or better than LC orange, but leaves a better finish (ie, less marring) with the 3401 on soft paint - if there is one. Since the Meg's DA microfiber...

Trying to find an edgeless MF towel that is fine enough not to marr soft paint, yet not too plush as I want the towel to be able to grab onto polish residue without having to scrub really hard which could increase chance of marring. I tried both pakshak ultra micro fiber and dragon fiber...

thanks - do you use speed 6 on the 3401 when using PFW? Does PFW leave a slightly better finish on soft paint (ie: less marring or haze) than LC orange?

Anyone try Meguiars #82 or ColorX after 205 with the Flex 3401 and if so did it add any gloss or extra pop to the finish?

FK 425, Optimum Instant Detailer & Gloss Enhancer, or CK Quick Shine. Has anyone tried anything else that gives a better gloss on black (besides products that are not true QD's like a spay wax)?

How did they work? Does anyone know what leaves a better finish with the Flex 3401 on soft paint - the Meg's cutting disc with 105 or PFW with 105? And which pad cuts more?

With the Meg's 105, UC, and 205 I primed the pad - KBM and used a couple sprays of XMT pad conditioner. Do you still prime the pad before polishing with WG? I thought you only primed the pad when using non-diminishing abrasives?

Soft jet black paint is tough to get right. I am trying a few test spots and found that 105 on a LC orange pad does leave new stratches aqnd haze so I have to follow up with 105 on white. I did notice some slight haze remaining after 105 on white so found that I could get rid of the haze with...

What leaves a better finish (ie less marring or haze) on soft paint - these microfiber cutting discs with 105 and the Flex 3401 or LC orange with 105 and the flex? A finer polish and pad combo will be used after, but just wondering if anyone can compare the finish left by the cutting disk to LC...

Can anyone explain how/why it finishes better on a rotary vs a Flex or PC?

Can you top PoliSeal with a glaze and then a wax? Would they bond? I have both a glaze and carbuba wax that I want to use after the final finishing polish.

Did you use a rotary or DA for this?

The Flex 3401 is not a rotary. Okay so you do need higher RPM to jewel, that why the rotary works better - the higher speed. The Flex 3401's max rpm is about 480 which is on speed 6...why are some others saying to go with speed 4 on the Flex 3401?

+1 Can anyone compare Optimum Finishing Polish to Ultrafina and/or 85RD on a black car with a FLEX 3401 or PC????

I thought speed 6 on the Flex 3401 was about 480 rpm.

Thanks, I will try a slower speed. I thought I needed speed 6 to break the polish down. What pad did you use?
