    How to remove left on compound?

    Cleaner wax will likely soften it right up and it will easily wipe away. It has always worked for me.

    Difficult to remove M105

    This works for all dried wax! Anytime you see that you might have an "oops, missed a spot" even if its a few weeks later, take a little fresh wax and it will loosen it right up and wipe away very easily.

    To Glaze or Not to Glaze?

    Glazes are great for SS paints, these paints often dry out and really benefit from the oils in glazes. As Bobby G said be sure you put a top coat over a glaze for protection.

    Good intentions, bad result...OPC Help!

    Thats a pretty strong dilution ratio, on a fairly clean interior 10;1 is generally sufficient. I use 4;1 on my tires and wheel wells... Also be careful spraying OPC diluted at any ratio on leather as it will streak and spot is not careful.

    megs d151

    +1, not so much the heat as it is the humidity. I hate detailing when it's humid. I would 3rd the aid of a QD for removal or use a different AIO .

    Experience needed for circular buffer?

    I learned on a Milwaukee rotary about 15 years ago, it was heavy as hell and only had one speed, it was very smooth tho and easy to feather the power with on delicate surfaces, nice machines.

    Boat Vinyl Seat Cleaning Advice

    Good ol Tuff Stuff foaming spray will also work on vinyl seats and surfaces. This cheap stuff is still one of my favorite interiors cleaners, for light vinyl, carpet and upholstery cleaning its tough to beat.

    Experience needed for circular buffer?

    You got that right Mike, for the weekend warrior you'll feel like you got your ass kicked the next day. I don't remember it being so rough on me when I did it for a living, but I was younger then too, lol

    Experience needed for circular buffer?

    I would agree with this too, I am comfortable with and prefer to use a rotary but picked up a Flex DA just to try one out and a rotary is much easier to control and a hell of a lot faster with correction too. Personally, I think there's a lot of great detailers on this site who fear the rotary...
