    My first whole car... 2006 Nissan Maxima

    Thanks for all of the comments. Im just glad to be able to share a little something. Puckman, I was thinking that the products I used just didn’t have the characteristics I needed to complete the job correctly. I was just toying around with the “lightest” combos I had to see what would work...

    My first whole car... 2006 Nissan Maxima

    Whelp, I purchase a Makita rotary a few years back that I used to correct some minor scratches and learn the craft of wetsanding but this adventure is utilizing a DA for the first time. I have been lurking in the shadows for the past few years picking up little things here and there. I'm still...

    Help Me Indetify the Problems Please

    Thanks for the articles. If I follow those procedures, I will have a black pad so Single Stage it is. This means the car was painted at some point because the stock paint code is a BC/CC system. As far as sanding and repainting, that is in the works. I was polishing things out briefly to see...

    Help Me Indetify the Problems Please

    The color code for this vehicle calls for a base coat clear coat?? Of course it could have been repainted. I used the pads on the rear spoiler first so there was residue on the pads when I got the near mirror finish on the roof and side panel. I washed the pads so they will be good to go in the...

    My First Go with the Makita 9227

    Thank you for the compliment. So far the wool pads do seem to do a great job. This is my first time even using a buffer so I do not know how they will compare to th assortment of LC pads I have on the way. The LC pads will be smaller so that i do not get so much splatter on the curved pannels...

    My First Go with the Makita 9227

    I am still awaiting a part of my shipment which will get here Monday, but I could not wait this long. This is what I got. I ordered some 105 and some lake country pads but that is what will be here Monday. I had an old car with some horrible paint so I decided to give it a shot. Here is...

    @ Mike, Thank you for the welcome and for the outstanding online database that you and your company have put together. I called and spoke to Ray the other day about these polishers and another gentleman on the tech line about the LC Hydro vs Hybrid pads. You all really do provide outstanding...

    Just wanted to drop by and say hello. I really enjoy making cars go fast. I like to take them and restore them one bolt at a time. I really enjoy pulling up at the light with an old beat up looking car and running a low 11 sec pass. This has been fun and I do still enjoy the beater look, but I...
