I'm using a PC for the first time. After clay bar, I'm using Pinnacle Swirl Remover. After making 4-6 section passes I'm getting a lot of white powder residue.
I don't recall seeing this in the how to videos.
What am I doing wrong?
Hahha sorry but couldn't let this one pass, very funny comment!, and so true...
When we see how-to-videos, generally everything works so nice it makes detailing looks something trivial.
Not only you may be using too much product, how you're priming your pad?
Have you got a pad conditioning brush, so you can brush away pad after each / before each new section?
I also like to clean my pad 'on the fly' using a MF towel, that just means running the polish while pressing a towel over the pad to clean up residue.
Pad conditioning spray (a quick detailer, I've seen some using even spray wax) may leave your pad less 'dryer' from the start, so if you keep cleaning it on the fly like I've said and using the brush conditioning to clean it often, it's likely many of your dusting issues may be gone.
Also, while I'm typing this, I saw many awesome opinions from our friends, you can listen and consider every single word they wrote.
However, from my experience, you're not free from dusting at all, specially when using cutting / heavy polishing products, sometimes, even doing everything right, the product may dust.
This is not a rule.
By the way, if it's crazy dusting, it's likely you need to improve some aspects of your technique.
Good luck,
Kind Regards.
