i used the Makita again a few weeks ago, this was the first full polish i have done with it, i was able to complete the job in half the time or less and much better results than i was having. i did cheat and use some of the thicker pads first. results were ridiculous, the owner didn't even know...

I was not looking to rid it of fog, it was an observation that it that way. I just wanted the mirror to be easy to wipe off and that achieved that

as a note on reload i alcohol wiped my large bathroom mirror, used carpro eraser then put reload on it.... the results the first week were pretty good, no fog or dirty mirror, the 2nd week half the mirror is foggy..... not sure why half of the mirror is foggy i did the whole thing at the same...

i noticed it has resistance when applied 100* to black plastic front bumper/grille and then waited 5 min or so and wiped with microfiber to even it out.... turned out nice with no streaks but i also put it on what i consider thick. when i did the solid powder coated surfaces a month or so ago...

i used Car Pro Dlux on the wheels and calipers of my 2017 SS 1LE and have not seen near the brake dust on the wheels and calipers that i did see, Seems to be a great product to help with keeping them cleaner from the get go. i did remove the caliper from the rotor but not off the car and washed...

I just assumed it was because it was new to me. Once i upped the speed and added a bit more compound it seemed to smooth out. 100* weather didnt help keep the compound from drying out either.

i'm going to have to try the wool and microfiber just to see what it does in comparison to the foam,, I've only ever used foam. It will likely continue to cut down on time spent polishing. This adds up quick as i already have $1000 more worth of stuff in my cart on Autogeek.net. I've got 2...

Makes sense after i used the thins vs the thick. The thin pads worked great and were easier but i see where your coming from on that for sure, probably should have used the thick ones to cut for sure. The pad that came with it was thinner. I'm not sure if this is a good way to clean the pads...

First off i came from an old PC 7424 , I purchased the Makita for about $300 then added 12 LC thin 5.5" pads. The Makita has a longer power cord, and feels heavy and larger at first. Very good quality, and really didn't get that hot when polishing the front of my 11 year old ford ranger that...

im a huge fan of carpro reset right now. seems to be smooth and suds

Well, I got a coupon in my email this morning that worked to drop it 15% and so I placed the order for the makita, I feel like if I don't like it I will go with the flex, the things that helped with my decision was that one I have tons of makita tools and they all have been great, it was...

For the makita, I noticed it says 15% when purchasing 2 additional items, I'm not sure how to see if that discount works and that 3" plate also fits it? I'm really torn between makita and flex as the flex is a guarantee that it will do more than I need but I feel as if I'd like the makita and...

your right, i went back and looked, the difference i was seeing was the rotary and was 3403

The main reason for looking into a new polisher is I feel like the PC may have some issues, its plastic cover around the head is starting to break, it gets hotter than it used too and It has a bad vibration that wasn't there...i think it has a bearing going out. Also what about the...

after looking at the price of the gg6 i may buy it and the Makita P05000c with lake city pads unless someone has evidence that sways me.

to be honest after reading on this forum for a while i increased the speed on the PC from 2-3 to 5-6 and had tremendously better results. Ive got the itch to buy a new one to make it go a little faster over all than i was used to. i had considered a Griots but really want something better. i...

Which polisher should I get? I currently have an older 7424 PC, it has done well over the years but its time for a new one and downgrade this one to a brush DA for carpet and general cleaning. i do a few cars a year (friends and family), usually newer factory painted cars. I am too slow to...
