Thanks everyone, I really appreciate the time you guys took to help me out. I have 3 of each pad and will clean and swap out as suggested. Quick question; once I have them cleaned and rinsed, can I dry them on a low heat or air only setting in my clothes drier on a sweater rack? With the...

The shop that did the respray does excellent work and has a great reputation. I doubt that they'd use cheap materials but I could be wrong. I just googled it and will be watching/reading shortly. Thank you. About 15 minutes outside of Pittsburgh. That's an excellent idea. Once my black...

^Wow what a difference!

It didn't need clayed. I clayed it over the summer. I did the Baggie test and felt nothing. As for the pads, I did Mike's on the fly pad cleaning after every panel. Sorry for all the posts, I can't multi-quote on my phone. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You are correct sir. I should have never bothered with 105. I spoke with a local guy here who told me to wash the car with citrus wash again, get some black pads and use 205. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nobody scratched the trunk. It wasn't like that until I polished it. The car never goes anywhere where I have to park and leave it. It's a toy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Speed was on 5 for both 105 and 205. Yes, it's rotating. I did the marker trick as soon as I got the plate. I do have to slow it down. I'm going to try the trunk lid again shortly. HAHAHAHA True! My wife looked at the car and shook her head.

Thanks, I'll do that from now on. Sucks that I have to learn this on my car. :)

I was referring to the trunk lid on my car, a 2009 Mustang. Very small trunk lid. The hood on the car is huge. I've been using dime size drops and didn't think I'd need to prime the pad since I've been spraying the fresh pad with CG Pad Conditioner before applying any product. What are your...

This is the first time I used a DA and with 105. I want to do this myself. What do you suggest I do next? I've gone the trunk lid 3 times with 105 and twice with 205 and the swirls are still there. I use CG Pad Conditioner on a fresh pad and 3 large dabs of polish.

No, two minutes of 105 for the left side, then two for the right etc. Basically a couple of minutes per section.

My first run at it I used no IPA. I washed the car down with ONR after each polish. What towels do you suggest? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm wiping down and off with cheap MF towels. Could that be it? I do the up/down back/forth like Mikes videos. This is my first detail with a PC. Maybe I overdid it? It took me maybe 2 minutes for each side of the trunk lid. None of swirls can be felt with a fingernail. This paint is a...

I tried again. Same results, maybe worse. Started with 11% IPA wipe down After 5 passes with 105 and orange pad and 11% IPA wipe down After 5 passes with 205 and 11% IPA wipe down. What do I do guys? Is my paint screwed for good? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

After spending many hours on my car, I still have swirls. PC7424XP Here's what I did: CG Citrus Wash M105 LC orange pad M205 LC white pad Black Light LC red pad Lava LC red pad V7 by hand Pulled it out in the sun today and noticed the swirls. They are not visible under fluorescent lights or...

Finished Polishing - Couple of questions I finished up the paint portion of my detail this week and really like the results. After M105, went over it with 205, then Blacklight, Lava and finally V7. I really like the results, although I think I could have done without the Lava (more on that...

I'm glad it's not just me. I applied it yesterday and was very underwhelmed by the results. Prior to applying it I had used M105,205 and Black Light. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

CG Lava. Doesn't live up to the hype and at $70 it should. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
