    Most Cut / Best Finish

    Another thought. I was planning on topping whatever I use for polishing with Collonite 845. Would I even need to put something on after using the Blackfire One Step seeing it has a sealant in it ?

    Oh man. Sorry guys. I just remembered, I have a bottle of Meguiars Ultimate Compound that I got when I was going to do this about 2 years ago. Too much stuff came up and it got put on hold. Does having this change anyone's suggestion for my product application ?

    Wow Tony. Thanks for the detailed reply. I had to read it a couple times to understand it. I think I got it. I already have a can of denatured alcohol. Would it be ok to use this on the tree sap buildup ? I bought the truck new in 2009. It's never been hit with a polishing machine. Yes, I...

    Oh heck. Just remembered. I'm going to need some Tar Remover too. I think I have some tree sap build up on the roof of my truck in the stiffening channels. So, recommendations for this would be great also.

    Ok guys and gals. Here's what my AG Shopping Cart consists of right now . The only things I'm missing are the compound/polish/wax part of the equation I think. Please let me know if I should change anything and why. Griot's Garage 6" Random Orbital Polisher Lake Country backing plates 3" & 5"...

    Thanks Mike. I've read that ( plus lots more ) and watched a lot of your videos several times. I think I understand the process and basic equipment needed. I just need some help choosing the compound/polish/wax/protectant product. With so many available on the market, it's really hard to...

    But, see that's the thing. I don't have anything yet. I'm still in the planning/researching stage with this. A couple weeks ago I did use Iron-X, washed with my new foam gun using Meguiars Gold Class shampoo, clayed using my new Blackfire Mitt, then finished off with Griots Spray Wax on...

    I do have the Lake Country Flat orange and white pads in my shopping cart. At least I got that far with my research. Haha Is it normal practice to use the same product with different pads on specific vehicle panels ? What I mean is, I was thinking about using orange pads on horizontal...

    Thanks again everybody. Keep the ideas and thoughts coming please. I've never done this before and still don't have everything I'm going to need to do it. Just trying to get my shopping cart in order. I have no idea about the paint hardness on the Nissan truck. Anybody have any experience...

    Most Cut / Best Finish

    Thanks again all. Sorry. Had to get a couple hours of shut eye ya'll know. Haha Man, more products recommended for me to research. I'd say the paint on my truck isn't in horrible shape. It's dull and kind of hazy looking. I can see light swirling ( cob webbing maybe ?) and what looks like...

    Most Cut / Best Finish

    Thanks so far everyone. Yes. I do realize that 2 of them are " All-in- one" products. But, I have read alot of reviews stating that the 3D Speed and Blackfire have pretty good cutting ability. I had looked at Sonax Cut and Finish too. But, it's hard to tell the differences in their products...

    Hi all. I'm new to all of this and am trying to get a plan of action to clean up the paint on my black, 2010 Nissan Frontier. Just wondering about these 4 products. It would be great if all of you that have used all or some of them, would give a brief summation on which one has the most cut...

    Identify this pad

    I used that polishing pad with Finesse It liquid polish after using 3 different grits of 3M paper fiber sanding disks that had adhesive on the back to attach to the backing plate. This was done with a pneumatic palm D/A. Only used water as lubricant with the sanding disks. Worked great. We...

    Identify this pad

    Looks like a 3M Finesse It polishing pad. I used to use them at work when polishing machined polycarbonite to a clear state. Worked really well with the Finesse It II polishing liquid. Maybe not exactly it, but looks very similar.

    Masking for Iron-X

    Hi all.. I got some products this week to start cleaning my black, 2010 Nissan Frontier. It is dirtier now than it ever has been. I'm hoping to do what I can with the products I got this weekend. I do have a question first though. I bought a bottle of Iron-X. I understand its purpose and...

    Amazon Pay Trouble

    Thanks for the reply. That’s what I am trying to figure out. Your point does make sense. Just sucks because I was hoping to use my Gift Card Balance to buy from AG. Oh well. Guess I’ll need to figure out something else.

    Amazon Pay Trouble

    Will Amazon Pay actually allow you to use your Gift Card Balance to pay for an order on AG ? I still get the pop-up box when trying to add new payment methods.
