I went to buy some more 5" pads tonight, but they don't make them any more as others have said. I bought the LC 4" plate system a few years ago. Will that work with these 5.5" pads or should I get the smaller Flex backing plate? Kind of disappointed I can't just pick up more of the 5" pads.

Hi guys & gals, My brother in law just called. He bought a blue 2002 Bluebird bus that he's going to use to help his teenage kids start a snow cone business with. In any case, he asked me for some advice on getting the paint cleaned up. He lives 1000 miles away, so unfortunately I haven't...

Mike, I picked a bottle of this up on my last order. My car is a newer clear coated vehicle though. Will this make any difference in the paint? Any advice for using it on clear coat?

Edit: in response to the post about Larry. I've seen every single vid of his at least once. I, too, sometimes see lots of dirt at the bottom of the bucket without grit guards. Fact is, when you dunk your mitt in there, the dirt isn't just sucked down there, it takes awhile. Regardless, as...

I mean you're right, they're super cheap. Cost is not the reason I have not purchased any. Really, nothing is; there is no reason. I guess part of me just thinks it's overkill. The dirt sinks to the bottom of the ONR solution as is. Regardless, if it were actually possible to quantify the...

I've been ONRing my car for at least seven years. Occasionally I will spray it down at a do-it-yourselfer when the car is absolutely filthy in the winter. Other than that, which is maybe once or twice a year, I ONR it only. My car is a nonmetallic black 350Z. Not only do I not use a grit...

I have a black 350z with soft paint. A couple panels have been repainted and the pain is EXTREMELY soft. Drying it absolutely mars it. Heck, I can polish it out, but wiping the polish off causes marring. I have just learned to deal with it. I ONR only, so I can't just let it air dry. Using...

Haha, yeah, I did it out of the sun of course.

I hear ya man, but like I said earlier, one of the panels I applied UK to I had JUST polished 10 minutes prior. It is just as much a mess as other parts. So maybe it is the heat and humidity. The product page doesn't say anything about not being able to apply it in hot and humid weather (out...

I'm just surprised because though I've heard it's "finnicky," I've never really seemed to get that a vibe that it was a very big deal. I'll try again in the Fall, but I'm not very hopeful it will flash perfectly. In other news, I got a sample bottle of liquid soveran spray wax with my last...

what?

anyone know how long I should wait to polish this stuff off?

Wishing I would have picked up Gloss Coat as I've heard it's super user friendly and Optimums products are what really got me started in this hobby. Been using ONR and OSW for years.

I did do the small panel above the side glass and I polished it to perfection about 10 minutes before I applied Cquartz. After polishing I used Eraser (I've already stated this). The panel looks just as bad as the roof. FWIW, even when I wax or apply sealant, if you look at the paint with...

I will try it again sometime in a small spot when it's cool, but to be honest, I'm really disappointed and extremely unconfident I'll be able to get this stuff to "finish" perfectly. I'm a bit pissed, because I typically research this type of stuff to death (and I did), and I had awful results...

Hey guys, hopefully someone can point me in the right direction here. Today I tried a coating for the first time. Subject car is a black 350z. Most of the car was polished a few weeks ago. I've been ONRing it 2-3x a week since. No wax. Today I finished polishing the car with SF4500...

Switch to ONR and wash in the garage. So much better experience IMO. It's what I've done for years. I'd love to have access to a flow of deionized water, but that's expensive.

I have a black Z; had it for ten years. The paint is a pain to dry. IDK what it is, but something about this car. Best to spritz a spray detailer, then dry. Don't buff it in. Let it dry. When your done, grab a new dry towel and wipe the entire car down to take out any streaks. If you wear...

Admittedly, I haven't done a really bad windshield for awhile, but try ONR. Just wash it like you would any other panel and dry it. If it was really bad, repeat that step. Wait a few minutes for it to be bone dry, come back with a completely dry unused towel and wipe it down. This takes out...

I can't get the other pic to load, but the last one should do the trick. And yes, I'm well aware of your calling those lights "cruel masters" and I certainly agree. Holy Mackerel!
