    Meguiar's Burgundy and Lake Country

    Thanks gentlemen. The boat has lite to moderate oxidation so I think I'll start with M105 and orange CCS pads. Depending on how that goes I may end up with #67 and the orange CCS pad (these I already have) or the Meguiars burgundy. Thank you all.

    Meguiar's Burgundy and Lake Country

    Guys I would be willing to bet that this question has been asked a thousand times but I don't see in my search. Here it is...what is the equivalent Lake Country pad to the Meguiar's burgundy pad? I don't think this matters but I'll be using the Flex 3401 to detail a boat so I'm checking my...

    Junk On Pads

    I'll leave the response regarding old vs new SS paint to those who know. I don't think you're quit satisfied with the results yet and I get it. The water spots would be driving me nuts. Paul_g has the right approach with least aggressive method. If it were me I would back down to a less...

    Junk On Pads

    I have a 2001 black ES300 and it's single stage. I've been correcting the paint for several years with a 1st generation PC, Meguiars UC and Meguiars yellow polishing pads. This combination has worked very well for me through the years but the pads always turned black and needed to be cleaned...

    Flex 3401 and soft paint

    Sorry. I probably used the wrong acronym. The UC left a slight haze. Not much but just a little. So after using UC I went back over the panel with 205 to get the glossy shine. Thank you.

    Flex 3401 and soft paint

    I thought I would update this thread for anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation with soft paint. I followed Billy Baldone's advice except that I used Meguiar's yellow 7 inch polishing pad in place of the white pad. This pad seems to work well the Flex. The yellow pad, 205 and Flex...

    Flex 3401 and soft paint

    I have Cobra white pads and white 5 inch CCS pad (I also have the 4 inch backing plate). Oh, and yes I have 205. So, your thinking white pad, 205 and maybe start with speed 4?

    Flex 3401 and soft paint

    For years I've used the first generation PC DA for paint correction on our 2001 black Lexis. Specifically, I've used the 7 inch Meguiar's yellow polishing pad and Mequiar's Ultimate Compound. It's done great but recently I purchased the Flex 3401 and I love how much quicker you can correct the...

    Lake Country backing plate washers

    Guys I got my Flex last week and I also purchased the LC 4 inch backing plate not the 6 inch backing plate. The 4 inch backing plate came with 2 shims. In this thread it is pointed out that the shims are just for the 6 inch backing plate. So, by virtue of the fact that LC included the shims...

    Second paying detail job 2008 Volvo

    Thanks again guys! Daimler, of course I washed and clayed the night before. (I awarded the customer first prize for the most contaminants.). After trying a test area I went with 105 and the orange LC pad using extreme downward force for two passes then one to two moderate passes allowing the...

    Second paying detail job 2008 Volvo

    Thanks guys! Yep he was happy. After the customer picked up his case his Dad called me later and asked if I would detail his 2013 G37. cleanmycorolla, the autogeek watermark is automatic I guess. This is my first time uploading pictures. I'll have to figure out how to tag my name to the...

    Second paying detail job 2008 Volvo

    So, I got my second paying detail job last weekend. Used 3 inch Meguiar's MF pad with D300, then 105/205 with 5.5 LC CCS orange and white pad respectively. Then topped it off with Meguiar's GC wax. I'd like to take the credit but to be honest Meguiar's just makes some fantastic compounds and...
