Great choice, have you tried the Silver Oak Napa Cab by chance? One of the best i've tried.

No swirls but a handful of rids

Take a look at the LC hydrotech pads in 5.5", they are fantastic for newbies and pros alike. The LC backing plate is also a quality plate to use and flexibility of the plate with a DA is not a big issue. If you are using the flexibility to work on the edge of the pad it will be hard to get any...

I've run into this on more occasions than I can count and have used the same method with success for 2 years now. Ultima Interior Shampoo Gel applied with a light spray followed by agitation with a soft tampico brush. I then wipe it down with a microfiber to dry the material. Dress with Ultima...

Manual is the way to go. Its much more manly to able to drive with a clutch than to tap on some paddles.

Wish I could've made it over; I'd love to mix up some Home Brew with the crew.

Start with a clay bar and get the paint nice and smooth. Iron-X could also be beneficial in getting the paint perfectly clean and smooth. As for polishes and pads, I'm a fan of lc flat pads in 5.5" with menzerna polishes (SIP, 85rd) and for heavier stuff a surbuf pad with 105.

:iagree: Ditch the cover, all it takes is a little bit of dust under the cover to cause marring. To maintain a full detail, I would just use a weekly ONR wash and be done with it. Use quality towels that are perfectly clean with 2 bucket method and you'll be very happy.

After using OPC and UIGP, dusting is as simple as wiping down with a damp microfiber. UIGP is going to stay put for a long time.

How about OPC? Then lock in the cleanliness with UIGP

You guys are killing me calling it a beaker. Its an Erlenmeyer Flask. :dblthumb2:

It all in the prep work. Polish the paint to perfection then top it with your favorite wax. Does ford still have that nasty orange peel like previous models?

soaps shouldn't be changing the way the paint looks...they are there to clean the paint gently and keep the lsp of choice in place. If you want a long lasting shine, perform proper paint correction and apply a quality lsp.

I've got a handful of polish formulations put together, but there are a few variables that i'm not 100% happy with as of right now. I'd like to get my formulations as close to perfect IMO as possible. I have been able to achieve similar results to much of the lines out there right now, but I...

I'm a chemist...and I'm gonna call bull. Doesn't he know that hydrochloric acid is highly caustic and will do a lot more than "open the pores"? I see HCl having potential to remove scratches from paint by basically chemical burning the paint level above the scratch. Sure that could work, but...

megs unigrit sandpaper 3000 grit to level the RIDs then follow with 105 on a microfiber pad. If that doesn't clear up the rids its better just to let them go. Most aggressive compound and pad for me is four star heavy cut compound with a 4 ply twisted wool 3m pad on makita rotary.

you can use your clay of choice. I personally use pinnacle clay because i don't want to mar my black wheels.

Sun or Halogen after Shot?
