hello there. I tried to post a question in an old thread but it's probably better to open a new one. I read the great thread about fg400 by hand where Mike says that to remove 1500 grit the process needs about 15 minutes. The question is: since he's using a microfiber cloth, would a wool cloth...

Hello everyone. I would treat a really old argument today. I know there are many threads about this but I barely can see a comparison when it's used a large trow da polisher, that is the kind of polisher we should consider if we want to compound... For example a great thread by Todd from rupes...

Hello guys. I would love to understand some of the specs of this tool to compare it to a solid and powerful DA polisher and understand its limitations Like said in previous articles it is a system that converts a rotation into a forced roto-orbital motion. It has 3 inches pads and the limit has...

hello there. What's your opinion about foam backing wool pads? Do they cut less than standard pads? Do they help preventing burns and marks or the good old thin pad is still the best? If yes, what's the function of a backing foam in such type of pad then?

Hello there. I'm looking for a web page where I can buy used tools and articles. I'm actually looking for a used meguiar's DA power system right now. Is there anyone who can suggest me where to take a look?

Hello there. I was thinking of buying a new heavy pad for my rotary but I really can't understand what's the best choice for someone who needs the property of generating less heat possible... When I looked for this kind of property I saw many different technologies but found that they're really...

hi everyone! are there equivalent products of scholl S0 in the market in terms of cutting power? What kind of manual applicator is better? Foam (heavy or medium), wool, microfiber or the scholl feltpad?? Thanks so much guys!

Hey everybody. Two questions about this really good pad. 1.scholl states this is a pad for orbital machines. Did anyone try this pad with rotary and can say it works as well? Low temperature and high cut as well? 2.equivalent pads and comparisons: chemical guys hex, wavy pads, cutting...

Hello everyone. What do experts of this forum think about multipurpose polish like Norton's liquid ice? The guy in the video says it breaks with temperature so it depends on the type of pad you use. That's a water-based polish. Liquid Ice® What do you think?

Hello everyone. Is that a good idea to use the one step polish 3in1 after fg400 instead of the same old sf4000? I know the one step polish has the same cutting properties of the pf2500 but carries to a gloss finished and waxed surface... so why not?

Hello everyone. I'd have a question about wet sanding for you. What are the electric sanders indicated for wet sanding? I'm about to buy a new sander and there are many options. I'd like to start with an economic one. The man at the counter said me its absolutely necessary to have a pneumatic...

Hi guys. I've got a banal question for you: are waxes (non natural), polishes and compounds harmful by inhalation? The question is expecially for Menzerna (I'm using the FG400...) and for Porzelack (...the express wax) products. Obviously the question is also for the other brands. Thank you very...

Hi everyone. I'd need just quick suggestions about this product that I know you know really much. This is a two steps (I'd say multiple steps) product which allows you to start from a really bad situation and carries you to a medium-high gloss surface. I think it is a special product and I guess...

Hi I would ask you what's the difference between using a polisher or using a drill (max 2280 rpm). I know the drill is not indicated but why?

Hi everyone. I was wondering if there is a simple method to repair a consistent dent on my car. I'll show you two examples of the kind of dent. It is below the car door... I was thinking of "pops-a-dent" but I guess this is for smaller dents... here you a couple of pics (plus one from an other...
