Thanks for the information.. Here are the exhaust tips that I need to remove the swirls on. What do you guys think about this process.. 1000 grit auto sand paper followed by 1500 then on to 2000 or higher. The last step would be Flitz with a dremel tool. The pics below show a quick...

I am about to begin paint correcting on my CTSV and have always wondered how to go about polishing up next to the 90 degree angles where the painted sections meet the trim. How do you guys take care of the crevis where the trim meets the paint? I have thought about using a qtip but that seams...

If I need more speed, I'll add a NOS bottle to the polisher and letter rip!:bolt: Cheers!

I finally came to my senses and placed the order. However, the order was different that what was originally intended. The major change was the polisher. Rather than spend big bucks on the Rupes, I decided the Porter 7424XP made more sense especially since this is a hobby and not a job...

I just took a look at the Griots Boss 21 and the price I saw was $385.00 vs $319.00 for the Rupes 21? Regarding power, I am not completely convinced I need more power. I would prefer to take the longer/safer method vs faster more dangerous method if that makes any sense. Question, Would...

Regarding the Zaino, I find myself using the Z-5 a large portion of the time to fight a few swirl marks etc. I also have to use a significant amount of pressure to remove the Z-5. Regardless of how good Zaino is, I find myself looking for alternatives, that are faster and better, simply...

If I use the Wolfgang Uber compound, is there a reason to use the Wolfgang finishing glaze? Thanks, Shawn

Thanks for the tip. I will take a look at the 3D products. Here is a question I forgot to ask.. After applying the Wolfgang sealant, would there be any benefit in applying a high grade wax over the sealant for added depth?

I am new to the forums and have been compiling a list of items for renewing a couple of my vehicle finishes. Here is what I have so far.. Rupes 21ES Bigfoot 3 each of the Rupes green, yellow, and white 7" pads 12 pack Pinnacle yellow foam applicator pads McKee's 37 microfiber cleaner McKee's...
