Thank you for the reply. What is the best light to get? Is it common practice to use the same polish/compound and use a grittier pad BEFORE going to a gritter compound? Or can you do it the other way around? Personal preference? How about my question just using 400 grit only and the paint...

Thank you very much for the replies! The Menzerna 3401 kit seems like a solid way to go. Couple questions: The different bottles with different #s are different grit right? These grits, should be matched with the correct color pad right? So what pad color matches to what grit level? And what...

Hello! So I have tried this(post what to get) but even with the replies I just cant make myself pull the trigger on some gear. I just get very discouraged due to the confusion and lack of experience. I have tried to do a little hw over the years but never really get a grasp on even what to buy...

Ok. I know I want the flex 3401. Is there anything else I need to use a 5.5" pad vs 6.5" from the factory? New backplate, etc? If so could you please link what I need? Thanks!

I watched the videos you linked me. They helped alot. Looks like you just wipe away with a microfiber. Question: Can you use the Collinite 845 with a Carnuba wax together since the 845 works itself in and the carnuba stays on top?

Also, do you apply the polish with one, lets say orange pad and then take it off with another virgin orange pad? Making is necessary to buy 2? Or does the compound/polish dissolve with the heat/motion of the machine?

Awesome! Are these on youtube?

That makes sense. So, in most peoples suggestions to me they suggest two polishes. I would start with the lightest one and go to the next level if I did not like it correct? Also, how does one really apply the polish? Smear it, then use the flex right? Does it so of disappear and that's when...

Thank you for the replies. This being liquid wax, do you apply it via the machine or by hand? I assume it dries just like carnuba and then you wipe it off?? Also, While my car is older I do not see the oxidation that I do on some. Ive kept it in reasonably good shape. So my question is, if I...

Hey There! I am overwhelmed with all the options on getting a good first detail kit put together. This is what I have in my cart. I'm really F'ing confused on the polishes, what the heck to use for what?! I was going to go with chemical guys Why? No reason, named sounded cool and their...

Thank you for the replies. What is M105 etc? I am sure is short for something I just know so little I don't know what it is. So if you guys could spell the whole thing out and not the slang term or just numbers it would help! Thx.....Truckbutt, who makes that stuff? Or is it made by everyone...

Hello, Looking to get a kit together....I have looked through the charts, threads, posts etc and am still confused on which brands and lines within the brands I should get. This is all very foreign to me. I took a guess on what I should get with the Flex 3401 and it is as follows: Menzerna...

I am totally new to polishing. I want to step up my game if you will...I have always washed, clayed and waxed my cars. I have never gotten into the details. I have been doing more reading that posting here and other places for good buffers. My research has led me to Flex and Cyclo. More...
