Mike, I've read several of your articles when you were with Meguiar's and was always impressed with your writing style and the fact that you treated everyone the same. You never treat anyone or any question in a condscending manner. And you never knock any product. A quality that is becoming...

Thank You Mike, I knew if anyone could shed some light on this, you could, or would know someone who would. Jim

I'm using the WOLFGANG Total Swirl Remover and the Wolfgang Finishing Glaze, on the Hydro Tech Pads. I don't seem to have any motor heating problems with the larger pads.

Re: Question Counter Weight Porter Cable OK; question about counter weights; I just bought the Lake County Hydro-Tech 4" foam pads, and also a backing plate for these pads. When I use these pads on my older model Porter-Cable the machine gets very hot! The motor gets VERY hot that is. No...

OK, to continue the question about counter weights; I just bought the Lake County Hydro-Tech 4"foam pads, and also a backing plate for these pads. When I use these pads on my older model Porter-Cable the machine gets very hot! The motor gets VERY hot that is. No problem when I put on the 5.5...

Mike, I'm a day late and a dollar short, in reading this article, but wanted to let you know, it's a better than outstanding article! Thanks, Jim

Mike, Yep, you answered all my questions. I'm probably going to get the Porter Cable 7424XP, since it is comparable to my 7335. Now i just have to fly down to FL for a hands on class. Thanks, Jim

OK; All very good info. Now I have the itch to purchase a new polisher from Auto Geek, so here comes the obvious.......Which is the best, or better, which do you reccommend? I know the Flex is more expensive then the others, but does that tranlate into a better polisher? Someone else...

Thanks, very good info. I think I'll take your advice and do the 4" Crimson with 3.0 and go from there. Yeah, I think my Porter Cable is on it's last legs; it served me well when working on other cars I had through the years. I always did my motorcycles by hand in the past, but now wanted...

Just finished your article on "How To Maximize Your DA Polisher" and you have described the problems I am having perfectly. The pad stops turning with very little pressure when using a pad bigger than 4 inches. The 4 in pads I have been using are the Lake Country's Hydro-Tech Foam Pads so I...

So if I decide to buy a new dual Action polisher, would you advise upgrading to the Flex? Once again thanks for all the good information.

My current ride is a 2009 V-Star. Great looking basic bike, and the Black Metalic looks great......when it is clean and flawless!

I'm in Warrenton, VA; not far from Winchester and about 45 miles West of Washington, DC. Great area!

Forgot to mention, I've been using the "PORTER CABLE 7335 Variable- Speed Random-Orbital" which I purchased from Meguiar's about 6 years ago. What is the difference between this DA and the 7424XP. Should I replace with a newer model? The 7335 seems to "bog" down with very little pressure.

I was using Woflgang total Swirl Remover. I think I was using too much presuure on the pad 4" Blue. I'll try it again with lighter pressure and the orange 4' pad. What are you using to apply swirl x? I would start with less pressure more passes or a combination of less aggressive...

Thanks; I've been reading and viewing some of the excellent articles and videos by Mike

My first question is, "How do I remove tiny scratches on my new (metallic black) motorcycle? These are scratches from the dealer wiping down the cycle on the showroom floor. I've used some swirl remover, (Meguiar's), but now have new scratches going in another direction. I usually do not see...

Thanks, but what is UPGP?

Feed back pleaseI've read more articles on Swirl Removers, Ultimate Compounds, Show Car Glaze, Scratch Remover, Total Swirl Remover, Polish, feeding the paint,etc, etc. What is the best all around swirl/scratch/paint cleaner for a car in achieving the deepest shine possible? Is there a big...
