I'm sure this is a great polisher, but I do have my doubts about it, especially if you're a weekend warrior: I think that the most important downside to this polisher is that it does not support backing plates that are smaller than 5''. This means tighter areas will be much more difficult to...

Hi all, Has anyone tried using the Pad Washer while it contained water only (meaning, no cleaning product was added)? If so, how well did it perform on cleaning: 1) Pads covered with compounds and polish material? 2) Pads covered with sealants and wax? Reason for me asking is that I want to...

I tend to agree, and I would love to hear some of AG's staff members opinion. It could very well be that what's left is just the color stain, and then there is no point in keeping the pads just for DG501.

Hey everyone, I can't believe it took me so long to get back here to read everyone's comments. Thank you all very much for the input! Yeah, I guessed I knew it wouldn't be such a smart idea, though I forgot to say that I was aiming towards Megs MF pads, so perhaps there is a slightly better...

Hi all, I was just wondering, when cleaning your pads in between sections - has anyone ever tried using a hair dryer (with the heat off of course), instead of using an air compressor? Did it get the job done? Thanks :)

Mike, Thank you so much for the input. I'll definitely try using it with the foam interface pad, although it may take me a while until I'll be able to report back. When that happens, I'll make sure to share my experience :)

I've been reading a lot of threads on whether the Meguiars DA system can be used successfully with the Flex-3401, and there seems to be a lot of controversy. Some describe many cons such as it being grabby with the Flex, hazing, etc. while others state they use it with great results. So for...

These are the Hydrotech pads: Lake Country Hydo-Tech Foam Pads, hydrotech polishing pads, pads for water-based polishes, buffing pads Powerlock can be used either by hand or by a DA, it depends on your preference. It's very easy to apply.

I'm going to be a little bit old fashioned and propose Klasse AIO. Yes, it has no abrasives so it will not cut (perhaps just a bit with a cutting pad or a polishing one), but then again - it's for your daily driver!! You'd probably want to retain as much clear coat as you can, not cut it each...

This is great, thanks! :)

Thanks again, your advice is much appreciated.

Thanks everyone! On AG's website they advise a polishing pad, have you tried it with an orange pad with good results? Thanks a lot for the input :)

Hi everyone, I've been searching previous threads about using DP Glass Restorer, but got a little confused - some love it, some experience more scratches than before. For those who use it and receive good results - Could you advise which process do you use? 1) Should I use my Griot's or the...

This is a tremendous write up, and a really great thread too! One thing I didn't get - isn't priming the pad with a QD before applying the first few drops essential, so that dry parts of the pad will not cause marring (even though it's a finishing pad)? Thanks! :)

Thanks! Can anyone else share from personal experience?

Hi, I'm wondering whether GLIDE has an expiration date once it is diluted? I have a good amount of GLIDE diluted for the autoscrub system still left in my spray bottle from about 3 months ago. Is it still effective and safe to use, or is there a limited time that you can use it after it has...

Thanks guys! I'll put it in the regular compartment... Will let you know how it went in a few days.

Hi all, Small question - when putting BF microfiber cleaner and restorer into the washing machine, do I need to put it straight onto the towels or should I place it in the compartment where you usually put the washing powder? Thanks :)

Congrats AG!! Any chance you'll be offering a 230V version as well? Sent from my GT-I9300 using AG Online
