| | | Any Tips????
Finally broke down and ordered a PC Kit from AG.....Any tips any one can give me to help me out? Am a little afraid to use it the first time so any advise would be great....I have some minor swirls on my Black Lexus....I have Optimum Poli Seal, Meq's ColorX, and Werkstatt's Prime Acrylic, which would work best for me and what speed does the PC need to be at?

I use Optimum, DP's, and Meg's. XMT, Pinnacle Twins, WG, etc. are all good choices too.
What pads did you buy? From the three products you listed, Poli-Seal might be your best bet for those minor swirls. Not sure about Wekstatts though. |

| | | Just used the PC for the first time...Used Werstatt's Prime Acrylic and it removed the minor swirls I had, then topped it with Werkstatt's Acrylic Jett Trigger....The car looks great...My question is what pad could I have used to remove the Prime Acrylic? There were some areas where I guess I had it on too thick and it was hard to get off so I used my store bought oribital and that definitely helped but it was still not easy...Im sure if I had the right pad for the PC it would have been much easier....

| | | Hi Darren F,
Nice another Lexus buddy. First of all welcome to the best hobby you will ever have. Keeping your car looking it's best is a fun hobby..well keeping any car looking new is fun if you ask me....but I'm a detail freak...just like all the other members here.
One advise I can share from my own experience is don't apply to much pressure to the PC, I was applying way to much pressure and still managed to get great results.
When you can, you should post pictures of your Lexus. I like the shape of Lexus’s vehicles, very sexy. |
