New Combo For Priming M105?

[jankerson]

:awman:



:iagree: That would be the definition of dry buffing. Easy to remove when none is there. :dunno:


.

As I said in another post... More or less....

The 1st time I use the pad with the M105 I put more on it and move it around on the paint before turning the polisher on in effect priming the pad if one wants to get technical.

But I don't flood the pad with product, I use what I put on the pad, make a small circle in the middle of the pad of M105.

Then after that 1st use I put like 2 drops on the pad then move it around like before and start the polisher.

So no I am not dry buffing as I said before, I know what that is and what I am doing isn't dry buffing.

Yeah it will dust some, but I am not seeing that much, but then I am using the new version of M105.

I use like 3 drops of M205 when I use that, and it goes a long way.

I find I don't need to prime the pad using M105, a little goes a long way, something like a dime sized amount in the middle of the yellow 6.5" Megs pad. Put the pad on the paint and make a small circle spreading it out a little then turn on the polisher and spread it out over the area. As long as it's spread out thin enough it works really well and I find it's easy to remove.

Well here is how my white Jeep Liberty turned out with M105/M205 combo, shot to show how good the reflections really are.

Only problem I see with mixing 205 and 105 is that you are really diluting the 105, which will give you less cut. It may not be that big of a deal...might be worth trying.

I think the reason that mixing d300 and m105 is so popular, is because 300 has a similar (but slightly less) cut than 105, so you're getting the benefits of the longer working time and lower dusting of 300 and the cut of 105.

I think the simple solution is to just switch to 101, which if the hype is true, it's superior to 105. I'll eventually switch but I just have so much 105 on hand and I use so much less product since switching to mf pads.

I don't mix the 2, I use them separate.

M105 with Megs 6.5" yellow pad followed up with M205 with 6.5" Beige pad (No cut finishing pad) and topped with NXT 2.0.

I agree with you on mixing 105-205.
However I do mix 105-UC, very little UC, just enough to give me more work time and easy wipe off, besides the two are very close in the way they cut, 105 does have more though.
