Mike, I wanted your opinion on using a PFW wool pad on a ROB mahine (Griot's or PC). Or are these best left to a rotary? Also, do you have plans in the works for a thread on the 54 Mercedes detail?

We were polishing the 59 Impala on Tuesday evening again. After not being comletely satisfied with the PG, I odered the M105/205 combo to try since it was the latest rage. I did like how it finished down better than the PG, but we could not get the amount of swirl/scratch removal from the 105...

I was just wanting to know what some of you experienced pros and others use to get a longer working time from Powergloss? Any tricks or secrets other than a water mist? Thanks, JK

BIL was detailing the underside of his '65 Chevy Impala Conv. and was using Undercarriage Spray from Griot's. This stuff did a grat job and smelled great too. I mentioned that Adams and ## sells this stuff too. Does AG have a comparable product and what would you guys use? This was all done...

What is the next step to use after powergloss? Do I need to use SIP or can I go straight to 106FA? I also have XMT #3 1n #1 and their carnauba glaze. I plan to use WG DGPS, Natty's Blue for LSPs. My plan is to try powergloss on the worst spots, do the rest with SIP, the whole car with Nano...

I just ordered a 5.5" Menzerna kit while they were on sale and it came with a 6.5" purple wool pad. Can this be used effectively with the pc or is it better left to a rotary? I also got an extra yellow LC pad and wondered which one would work better for tough spots or is there anything I...

I noticed that my 1966 Nova has some bad spots, mostly on the top, with what appears to be "solvent pop" on it. What is the best way to deal with this to hide it or attempt to correct it? I did not know what it was until this site/forum. You people are great and I have learned alot. Also...

I tried some experimenting with my 1966 Chevy Nova last Tuesday night. This was my first time using the PC with the XMT. I clayed the trunk lid only and started out with the XMT #3 with orange LC pad and followed up with the #1 on white pad. Results were not as good as I had hoped or expected...
