do you recommend the sponge over the lambswool?

Get the yellow grout sponge from Lowe's. For 2 bucks, get several. They do last a long time.

i was planning on getting that, but some were saying it caused swirls for them...maybe they were not cautious.

so with onr, a sponge looks better?

I've used it on blk paint with no problems.

good to hear.

with onr the grout sponge or LC sponge work great... for regular wash, schmitt all the way... i like the sponge for onr, seems easier to me...

for the price, i would get both so you will be prepared for both methods, but regardless, 2 buckets...


AG should sell a kit with a sponge, 2 grit guards, and a schmitt...

yeah actually i think i may just get pb ss&s and onr along with a lowes proline grout sponge and a lc blue foam sponge and maybe even a lambswool.

see which one is better at removing the splattered rubber off the side of the car after a day at the dragstrip.

For the splatter, you may want the pinnacle safe scrub bug and tar pad, or just some onr and a clay bar.

A lot of guys on here and at autopia use leaf blowers. I would, but my neighbors already think I'm anal enough I use my compressor to get the water out of the cracks.

Yes! This is the way to go. Blow in a downward motion away from the car. damn.. did say, "BLOW in a downward motion" sounds nasty.

... and the compressor technique is also a good method if you have moldings that trap water.
