    Gloss Meter

    I could guarantee that gloss meter result is pretty ligit. Most of car care products manufacturing hate it because it could proved that the claimed of their wax, sealant and coating making car glossier a false claim. The glossiest paint is when it had been polished and wipe down, any coating...

    Need your advice to help me decide which product I should buy

    Go for MK2, it’s not make sense that 3401 would be more expensive than MK2. Also 3401 have much less correction ability unless you put quite a pressure on them, and it’s will wear you out pretty quick. Rupes on the other hand could stop spinning, but all you need to do is learning the trick...

    I usually use them on FG400 and SF3800, both cut and Gloss are phenomenal. If you need just only to polish small defect Yellow and your Jescar finishing polish will work perfect to creat deep wet. For AIO, Maroon will work very well, I try it with speed and get a “cheating” result on heavy to...

    Jcat9, if you are interested in using Rupes pad but not thier liquid, you can go all the way with BnS URO-TEC line, it’s even better on durability and versatility with every brand of compound and Polish.

    Fightnews, HDO foam pad cutting ability is very low, it’s just on par with orange or yellow CCS pad at most (which both have less or equal to URO-Tec Maroon at most). Their HDO microfiber cutting is great though. But if you want a foam cutting pad, you will never disappoint with BnS Uro-tec or...

    I find Thin Pro to be too thin and having problem when you try to get to tight area, while low pro eventhough the foam also thin but the design that increasing backing allow you to get more angles to get into conclaves and tight area. I found Low Pro green to providing more cut and finishing...

    Uro-Tec pad is great but once you can get familiar with Low Pro, it would deliver you to next level of cutting power.

    1 Step Polish

    Rupes UHS, as one step polish with cutting rate at 8 out of 10 and finish so perfect, I never found any other 1 step compound to compete with them. It also a true Zero dust in any situation as well.

    Ceramic Coating Package from Local Shop

    Ceramic coating will not bond on Glaze or any AIO, you can forget 1 year protection here, it would be just months. It would be much better if they use word polish then seal.

    Buff and Shine Uro-Fiber Pads

    URO fiber is my go to MF pad, it will cut a very little less than LC new MF but will finish much much deeper and glossier. You can pair it with FG400 for heavy compounding and still be able to finishing LSP ready with just one step.

    Mckees paint coating vs pinnacle black label paint coating?

    I don't know about mckees, but I will never used any of Pinnacle Coating again. Both Surface coating and Black Label V.2 both are very week coating for my country climate, none of them ever exist more than 2 months. Gloss Coat and CQ stay much much longer.

    30$ pneumatic polisher the ultimate scartch killer?

    Why he compare his 80% work to several days full correction? I can use My MK2 to do 80% jobs in a few hours as well. By the way, lately I come to get what he try to explain. I am Rupes diehard fan, I can polish curves and conclaves area using them. However, I had to admit that a cheap...
