What speed setting does everybody use for the different steps with a gg6 and gg3? I just finished polishing my truck with the gg6 and don't think I ever went all the way up to 6. I stayed around 5 for both correction and polishing. I did notice that hd cut seemed to flash over so I'm wondering...

Hello there. I'm an avid truck-ophile and like nothing more than seeing my truck shine. Joined this site to stay up to date on the latest and greatest car car products, tips, and procedures; as well as to be around like minded individuals who won't view me as weird when I say I spent 3.5...

LOL.. story of my life; not good, not bad.. but typical!!

To help all those who find themselves faced with this question, I wanted to provide you side to side comparisons of the options. As you can see there is a definite gauge difference in the regular version and HD cable Not to mention the additional length definitely makes it nicer as draping...

Thanks DCJREDLINE. I am only doing my own cars and this will be my first polish so I am hoping the Meguiars is also more NEWB friendly. I want the over the counter easiness so I will be going with UC/UP. So would everyone say my swirls are Mild or Moderate? Thanks again everyone.

Appreciate the responses everyone. So is it safe to assume my swirl marks are considered "mild"? So Meguiars reconditioning cream could work? If I went with an orange pad, would I want to follow up with a white? I wanted to stick with Meguiars since it is over the counter and it is my...

So I am a newb to polishing and want to do away with all the swirls on my dark blue Daily Driver F-150 but I am unsure if my swirls are mild, moderate, or severe. After a slew of research and help from you guys and this site, I bought a HD GG 6" with a 5" and 3" BP. Purchased several orange...

Jvanseeters, Tersplat, I appreciate all your comments, tips, reviews, and most importantly..time. I think I have all I need. Finishing up a final order tonight and July 4th weekend I am off to the races. I bought some LC foam pads and the ultimate combo to accompany the microbuff to be sure I...

:haha: :laughing: :dblthumb2: :iagree: THEY SHOULD TOTALLY MAKE THESE!!!! on a serious note.. thank you for posting this story. Sometimes it takes the mistakes of others to remind us that things can go wrong very quickly if you don't pay attention; and sometimes, it's the best way to...

Thanks for the response Mike. I contacted Nick with Autogeek inquiring if a test/review/opinion would be offered on the product and if Autogeek was going to start carrying it. I hope Autogeek looks into it as I would love to see what an experienced hand such as yourself thinks as the material...

CC268, How did it work out using: LC 5.5" Flat Pads Orange (4) White (6) Blue (2) I have an 07 F150 quad cab I am getting ready to polish and need advice on the pad count as well. and why more polishing pads vs compounding pads? I would think you would want more compounding pads due to...

Thanks Jvanseeters, I appreciate all your answers as you appear to be the only one to have used this product that is responsive. I am hoping Tersplat shows back up so after I am finished there will be three of us. I even wrote Autogeek suggesting they try it out as there seems to be a...

And... is this like typical pads; should I have more of the cutting pad than the polishing pad? How many? Appreciate your input greatly. I want to make sure I have all the materials I need before I start so I'm not left half done and out of needed material.

Is Ford considered a Ceramic?

In an effort to keep it simple, I think I am just going to go with Ultimate Compound and Ultimate Polish. Do they dust?

Thanks for the input guys. I'll most likely end up using Ultimate compound and polish or the new microbuff system by nanoskin. Just trying to see what I have in store for me as this will be my first attempt at polishing.

Mike, Have you tried the Microbuff system by Nanoskin? I would love to get your and autogeek's thoughts on the product. It looks different from Meguiars' Microfiber system and there aren't many posts on it. Hope you look into it and give it a try. Would love to get an experts opinion.

jvanseeters, New question: did you mix and match the formulas among the pads or do you stick to formula 67 on yellow, speed cut and nano cut on black? and being the pads as so thin, how do you deal with body lines and raised areas? Thanks again!! tersplat What about you, are you still using...

Hi everyone, I have a 2007 f-150 I want to get the swirls out of and polish up. Are these considered hard or soft paint. Wondering how aggressive I will have to be. Thanks.

Hi guys, I am getting a bit nervous. I have heard horror stories about over polishing on body lines and wearing through the clearcoat/paint. I am about to tackle my vehicle (never had any paint work done to it before) and am nervous I will go to far. Any tips or tricks to avoid this? It is...
