    Zymol Waxes and Products

    Has any here had experience with these products? I've always wanted to try them but don't want to leave with a somewhat empty feeling. I mean 167$ for an 8oz jar is a little high.... but so tempting.... but is it worth it? (I'm on the eshine website debating whether or not to submit my order...)...

    What am I doing wrong :( Holograms after using a rotary buffer

    Re: What am I doing wrong :( Holograms Yes I have one, this was taken only after the SIP treatment with the makitta. I didn't take a close up after the 106 and 85, but I guess I can as the car is here still :p Yes you are exactly right. After you told me the DA is what insures...

    What am I doing wrong :( Holograms after using a rotary buffer

    Re: What am I doing wrong :( Holograms I didn't know menzerna made there own pads. That's good to know. But I'm proud to say I just completed two of what I'd call, my first perfect finishes. I know it's hard to say perfect, but I've found a technique that works so well now, that I'm very...

    Question about counterweights?

    I just received my XP yesterday. I noticed on the counterweight it say "Use only with 5 inch pad" I want to use my 3.5" pads, so do I need to take this counterweight off? The instructions don't tell me lol. Thanks! Renee

    What do ya think?

    Well I actually go over to their dealership and wash all their cars I've polished.... I can't sleep thinking they'll get ruined. My turnaround is pretty good for the cars selling soon after I return them, so they like me haha. I actually just ordered everything you showed on the Lexus step by...

    What do ya think?

    Doing a huge Escalade SUV in black for a dealership to be stored outside. Think it's ok if I go from Menz SIP to Menz 106FA then directly to wax? Or should I put the extra hours in a use 85RD before?

    What am I doing wrong :( Holograms after using a rotary buffer

    Re: What am I doing wrong :( Holograms Hmm well your advice is very convincing. Problem is I do work them until theyre properly broken down and clear. Perhaps I should go back to CCS pads? Although I was not happy with them. Bah What CCS pads would you recommend with the makitta and...

    What am I doing wrong :( Holograms after using a rotary buffer

    Re: What am I doing wrong :( Holograms When we compare here Are you talking 85RD or 85U I'm looking at your site and where it says PO85RD it's showing a bottle of PO85U. Do you mean Final Finish (PO85U) or Micro Polish (PO85RD). Menzerna Polish PO85RD, Mernzerna 85rd, Menzerna po85rd That...

    What am I doing wrong :( Holograms after using a rotary buffer

    Re: What am I doing wrong :( Holograms Sorry I use #7 by hand and #3 with a polisher. But I'm sorry, I just like the #3 shine better on black cars. It's just opinion. I don't know how you mean play with it more?

    What am I doing wrong :( Holograms after using a rotary buffer

    Re: What am I doing wrong :( Holograms It's a finishing glaze with just a filler, no cut. Usually I just apply it by hand. 85RD has a slight cut. I think it has a better gloss then 85RD leaves. And I use a light polishing pad with 85RD And I mentioned I'm using 8" 3M pads (Black, yellow...

    What am I doing wrong :( Holograms after using a rotary buffer

    Re: What am I doing wrong :( Holograms I totally agree. I've recently switched from 6.5"ccs pads to 8" 3M pads and noticed my angles can easily get out of control! I'm practicing a new technique on a carrera right now, I'll post some pics up after in a couple hours, see if I can get it right...

    What am I doing wrong :( Holograms after using a rotary buffer

    Re: What am I doing wrong :( Holograms Hmm you'd use 106 before 85? I'm looking at both my bottle of those side by side and they look identical. What's the difference? And I hear this "jeweling" term used around but have never found anything about it on the internet, can you clear my...
