Yea I sort of heard about it and the concept, but I live in a small condo so don't really have any space for a large tank. I'll send you a PM if the situation ever changes though.

I'm in Phoenix, AZ. And yea I feel you, it's brutally hot and dry. I washed my car about few weeks ago under a shaded spot, even so, water would dry up within a minute or two. Unfortunately, I did get some water spots. Lesson learned not to wash cars during the day in the summer. Then like you...

Thanks for the help everyone. Yea that color looks very beautiful when polished and ceramic coated. Oh that's funny. I bought the SAME exact polisher for the SAME exact reason lol.

Yea, I'll go with option 1. Even if they repaint it per warranty, it'll be one section at a time and it will probably look horrible. I do have a DA polisher so I'll stick to DIY ceramic coating with 1-step polish. I seriously HATE how thin the paint is. It's a $40k brand new 2023 car. I...

Just bought a brand-new car (Mazda - dark gray color) in AZ. Hate how thin the clear coat is. It comes with “Armor All Smart Shield” paint protection with 10 years exterior warranty. They couldn’t apply it any worse even if they wanted to. Zero prep work. There are streaks, haze spots on the...

Thanks for the clarification Paul. Yes, the damages were caused when it was spinning from the edge. When I was doing headlights, the edge touched the paint. When I was doing door panels, the edge touched the door handle. When I was doing the bumper, the edge touched the line. Every single time...

1. Yes, same size and brand. I think orange was light polish. Blue is medium/heavy polish. 2. I'm not sure what you mean by rotating the surface from flat to edge?

I'm sure every single person here is on the edge of their seat waiting for me to post the setup. So here it is: Polisher diagnosis - YouTube It seems fine when it's running. But when it's actually polishing, are all those vibrations normal? P.S. I used orange pad last time. I'm using blue this...

Well this is really weird. I know for a fact they weren't there before. I caused it within 1 seconds of my DA pad's edge touching it. I'll post my setup over the weekend. Most likely Sunday night. I don't think so. At the time of polishing, I was completely sober and didn't experience any...

Okay, I guess you're right. I'm not the OG owner so I have no way of confirming it. I wish I taken a picture but the same thing happened on passenger door handle too (While polishing the door). Didn't tape off door handle and accidently touched it for a second and paint came off (exactly like...

Yea, I could see the paint being compromised in front bumper. However, the rear bumper was factory paint and all I did was go around the edges for a slight bit. That one seems most confusing to me. I've watched several videos where people places DA on the edge and nothing happens. No idea why...

Oh wow, did not expect this many replies so fast. Thanks all. Only the front-bumper was re-painted. Rear-bumper was factory. Those spots were NOT there. It's my car so I know (BMW 128i). They were caused by slight touch from the side of my foam pad. When doing headlights, accidentally touched...

Hey all, This is probably a stupid post but it was my first time polishing my car. I was using Maxshine M8S. I was using 5" pads. Lake Country Orange. 3D one-step. Please see the pictures below. I messed up on the edges. IMG-0723 — ImgBB IMG-0724 — ImgBB I noticed the plate/pad would...

Gotcha, thanks guys. Yea, I guess I'll start with orange and use blue on places that might need a little more.

I currently have 2012 BMW (light color paint). I'm assuming this is hard paint? I'm wanting to apply a ceramic coating right after. Here's what I was thinking of using: 3D One - Car Scratch & Swirl Remover Lake Country HDO Blue Heavy Polishing DA Polisher Speed Settings: 5 (MaxShine M8S)...

I will try white distilled vinegar, with ultimate polish, maybe today or next week depending on the rain stauts, since it's raining pretty hard right now lol I'll let you guys know about the result.

It's been only a year since I've gotten this car. Couple weeks ago, I Washed, Clayed, Waxed my car. Few days later, there was a sprinkler that sprayed all over my car, and once I got back My car was full on wet because of it. That left some water spots on the car, I thought that was just wax...

I really would like to get into auto-detailing, I love my car and I want it looking as best as it can (: As for scratches, on some part I can fill a little click sound, those are very deep but very small. As for other scratches, they are not deep and I just hear a little different sound as my...

Thank you everyone (: I will take a look at the forums for proper instruction. I just want these scratches gone lol.

I have a brand new 2011 Mazda, and somehow I got these scratches on the right side of my front bumper. They don't wipe off or anything like that. I wanted to try things like Polish or Novus scratch remover but I heard it's not safe on new cars. I have a drill bonnet/buffer so I was just going...
