I got some new products for Christmas and was excited to try them out. I got ONR. M105and M205 and i picked up a PC last week.

My truck was compounded and polished last feburary, and it cme out pretty good, I have tried to maintain it through the year, I have picked up a few RIDs, its my daily so thats expected.

ONR wash(really like this stuff)
Clay
M205 on yellow polishing pad (between speed 4-5)
#7 show car glaze
Collinite 845(to be applied tomorrow

Alright, I found m205 to be easy to work with. I had a RID that i felt would be perfect for it, Cant feel it with my fingernail but could hear it.

I did two passes with more pressure, then eased off to polish it out, here is a 50/50

still need to work on my scratch and swirl pics, Im going to use a stand for the light next time and a tripod i think that will help.

I was able to remove most Swirls and light RIDs in the paint and was very satisfied with M205, Polished up to a nice gloss

Thanks, I used a meguires yellow polishing pad, which i believe is the white equivalent. I ordered M205 from this site, arrived in time for Christmas as promised
 
Are you saying you did each panel 3x with 205? What was the working time for each panel?
 
No I just did the Deeper RIDS 3x sorry I didnt say that clearly, I worked each panel once and if it needed more correction i would do it again.

I felt it was average work time, a few minutes per panel
 
Fantastic pics! Thats at least two positive reviews of M205, might have to grab me some.

Im working on the Detailer part, i need a little more:buffing:time.
Thanks for the compliments!!
 
Yah PT has alot of great info, mines fully bolted, cammed, trannied, Rear end built...fun tod rive thats for sure
 
Im running a comp 212/218 if my memory serves me right and a yank 2600 stall...which isperfect for the max PSi a magnacharger produces at 2250rpm..

if your not planing a blower, id recommend one fo the thunder cams, 220 or 224 and a 3-3600 stall..which in our trucks are very streetable and make great power
