Try some Menzerna products. I am not against using 105, 205- I tried it many times when I thought a particular car could benefit from it and it was a little disappointing most of the time when compared to Menzerna. Menzerna is more of a broad spectrum product. I really can't think of a car it...

Nice job, great results! Essence is a regular tool in my arsenal now and I love it.

A pretty nice example of this funky little car. It has a 2 cylinder boxer type engine with a whopping 15 hp! It was restored and while it's a good looker from 8 feet, it needed help. Paint was pretty thin and single stage so I could really only do a limited amount of grinding. Present were a...

Yes, I know, I'm bad with pics. Especially before/after, I just like to jump into the project and get a rhythm going.

Nice job man, love turning those catastrophes around, gives a great feeling of real accomplishment. What part of Naples are you in? I'm down there in the winter and live over in Lakepark.

1962 Volvo 1800 A nice car that was in need of some love. Car was prepped by claying first to remove moderate contamination, then IPA wipe down, followed by FG400 on LC orange pad, followed by Essence on a Carpro white polishing pad then a coat of Reload to top it off. Removed about 90%...

Oh boy. If you don't have a PTG you are inviting trouble if you are doing something other than just washing and waxing or working on factory paint that you are absolutely certain hasn't been touched by a body shop or hack detailer. How are you going to know if it's safe to rub on? By looking at...

I used gold xxl on a corvette hood which usually is a hard clear coat. By itself it was good enough to call it good. Of course I followed it up some 4000 but it did cut and finish better on this paint than my beloved FG400, the pads work well with Menzerna and this gives you a bit more...

Been trying them out the last month or so, very pleased with Gold XXL! Cuts great and finishes nice, spider Pads work well very stiff, correct nicely. The s20 I like as well, pretty oily which I like for better working time.

Definitely the polisher, pretty useless really. I actually use Metabo rotary right angle grinder on slowest speed with 1" or 2" pads. Does pretty good.

im really liking the Scholls gold XXL! Still love my FG400, but it seems I went through a whole bottle of XXL pretty quick, and the S20? That stuff corrects and glosses like nobody's business-seems like you can pick whatever pad you like and the S20 doesn't care, it just works. I have used it on...

Thanks, I'm really lucky to get to work on this stuff

Been working on a lot of different stuff lately, so busy I'm just catching up with posting a few. I REALLY like working on Porsche vintage stuff, Guards Red SS paint is soooo good to work on -it stands the test of time, 30 yr old paint that can be rubbed out to look like new is some good s$&...

here is one before pic

Thanks sir

Just got done with a very nice 69 Mach 1 with a respray of unknown origin. Maroon single stage was of course oxidized and loaded with scratches. Before and during the process paint was metered every step of the way as the readings indicated very thin( unsafe to machine polish) paint in a few...

I too have had different experiences with essence. You do have to learn how it works, I just tried to work it in gently with my Flex 3401 on a 69 Mach 1 with a single stage respray- no way! It was grabby etc. when applied by hand it worked but definitely required close attention. Looked great...

Thanks, saw your work as well, very nice, was a good show!!

]Here are a few pics of a really nice 36 Ford 3 window coupe that I performed a moderate correction on. 2 stage to remove some mild to moderate scratching and follow up with some Blackfire polymer to bring out the best from the beautiful copper/champagne paint. MTwin turbo 302 power makes this...
