Sooo I decided to put my new PC to the test using the KB method... Thanks Phil once again for the speedy shipping of the PorterCable: I also purchased my PowerGloss/ and Power Finish from him awhile ago As well as the yellow LC pads...and the green ones when he had a BOGO offer I would've used my DSLR but its with BenLS460 :egads: The Arsenal: Chemical Guys Window MF's Shag Rag Fluffy MF Optimum No Rinse w/ DH20 as a quick detailer spray MTE 900 Lumen SSC Flashlight Craftsman Shop Lights AutoMagic Claybar Pad Spurring Tool Porter Cable 7424 Meguiars M105 Meguiars M205 Detailers Domain Orange Pad Detailers Domain Green Pad Makita CX3 LCS Yellow Pad LCS Green Pad Menzerna PowerFinish (203) Menzerna PowerGloss (S34) Well I decided to give my new products a run as I only have used 106FA with orange so far on my hood. (after claying) (not as bad as before but still it has swirls) (new goodie that came in the mail) (not too bad) Considering Ben's LS460 was around 180-170 on average.. (So far its been Claybarred); and the paint readings have been taken) The first twins (above) Prep pads Dust is tasty ..not Who will win: The other combo :tear: the makita depresses my pads hahaha My "cheap" wax Only a few rids left (faint line of transition) (where the flash sort of makes it out) is the splitting point All in all both work quite well (masking tape residue) My 2 cents: The Makita will get it done faster; with less wear on your pads; and with only about a 1/4th of vibrations
Really nice detail. It looks great. I'm glad you had good luck with the KB method. I'm waiting for the write up still. Way to go...:thumb:
I just need to figure out the KB method on the Makita; because too much polish and the heat will cause gumming
I stopped looking after a few pictures cause those pictures are HUGE... Sorry man, but sounds like you did an awesome job.
There has been a lot going around about this..im gonna wait till kevin posts up his paper...im way excited..and you made it worse
I love your arsenal... What do you think of M105 n M205 vs Menzerna PowerFinish n Menzerna PowerGloss
I just swirled my own hood again (more like marred it) infront of a DB member, I made the mistake of swiping my finger over it lightly..and sure enough...I have a micromarr underneath
