What do you guys use for bug removal? Do you guys use a separate product to get the bugs off the front of the car first? I read good reviews on the poorboys stuff: Poorboy’s Bug Squash: Removes bug remains, even Love Bugs, from car windshields and front bumpers. bug remover, pooboys bug...

EX-P vs Klasse vs 4 Star UPP OR DP Poli-Coat seems to be another good one for <$20 OR Duragloss Total Performance Polish too many choices!! which one do you like and why? How long do they typically last for you?

Ok thank you for the advice, I will check out these products. The car is in pretty good shape now since the last time I did a full detail. However, the first time I did it I didn't know as much as I do now, and I didnt have good lighting to see if the defects were gone. Some places like the...

gotcha Yeah I might try 105 with a white pad and see the results. I havent tried it. This leads me to a few more questions.. *Can I use a gray or white ccs pad on taillights/headlights with M205 and Plastix? *Which has more cut: M105 w/ white pad vs M205 w/ orange pad. This is where I get...

thank you for the response. I had the link to the compound comparison but I didnt have the buffing pad comparison.:props: So after reviewing it, would this be a good order of things in worst case to best case? I would start @ START for the car if it was in good condition (few or no swirls)...

idk if this is just marketing but this is in the "polish with sealant" description: "This sounds like your average all-in-one product but, remember, this is by Poorboys. Poorboys Polish with Sealant wipes on and off with unbelievable ease and the shine it leaves behind is on the same level as...

I need a reminder on how to use these CCS pads with products.. On a scale from greatest to least cutting is this true: *Yellow -> M105 *Orange -> M105 *Orange -> M205 *White -> M205 *Green -> M205 *Green -> Poorboys World Polish with Sealant AIO *Gray -> Poorboys World Polish with Sealant...

So, if you use polishes/compounds on the paint and get out the marks you skip glazes altogether? I read good reviews on the black hole stuff and that's why I was looking to change up my method, I've never tried glazes. Like I mentioned above, I use poorboy's all in one "polish with sealant"...

yeah I will try 205 first, I listed 105 just for incase I have to back up a step and go deeper with 105. As for wheels, tires, etc, I'm set on that stuff I think.:xyxthumbs: What pad do you guys use with 205? Do you use an orange pad and then use it again with a white pad? (lake country colors)

yeah, I know. That is why I am looking at no longer using my "polish with sealant (AIO)" and going to either "polish with carnauba" or "EX-P". In other words, My old method Meg's 105/205 -> "Polish w/ Sealant" (AIO) -> DP Max Wax Proposed New Method #1 Meg's 105/205 -> "Black Hole Glaze" ->...

I answered my own question #2 here, found this Aggressiveness Order for New Consumer Products - This will surprise you!! any thoughts or ideas on my other questions?:buffing:

Hello all, I am looking to prep my car for a carshow coming up next week. Current products I have: *Porter Cable DA *Meg's 105 *Meg's 205 *Meg's Ultimate Compound *Meg's Swirl Remover *Meg's ScratchX 2.0 *Poorboys World Polish with Sealant (AIO) *DP Max Wax *Lake country pads -orange -white...

thank you both for the informative replies.. i'll do a bit more research on the stuff. What is the main difference between the "flat" CCS pads and the "normal ones"? As far as I can tell, the flat ones have a rounded edge which makes it less likely to have the paint come in contact with the...

what are some better things about the Griot's one? I searched and I cannot find anything really different.. It's more powerful? Also, I've modified my shopping cart.. *Should I start off with some small bottles of Meg's 105 and 205 to see how they work? *What color pads should I chose to...

Thanks OK here is my shopping cart so i'm set for a while.. *Is it wise to purchase this smaller backing plate size attachment so i can have more control in tight areas of the car? *Would this sampler kit be enough to do a whole car?

thanks for all the help everyone! would it be a good idea to put a little piece of tape over the rock chip area to prevent product from building up in it and preventing me from fixing it?

some more questions: *what are some good pads to start out with? *what are some good compounds and polishes to start off with? I like the poorboy's "Polish with Sealant" that I have (only used it by hand, probably comes out even better with a DA).. The car has quite a few scratches and spider...

ok great thanks for the help! So when i go to use the DA, should i use the tape to tape off edges? I.E. seam of the hood and the front quarter pannels, etc..
