| | | Good work in those outside photos, but you do know PB's polishes have fillers right? I'd be more impressed if you used a polish w/o fillers for that test. I bet by hand you could get 90% of those results with PB's polishes. Try a ##'s pro polish + or menzerna polish and see how it does. The pad just isn't spinning near fast enough to do the work I expect out of my details. In the vids, it looks like it takes a second or two to spin the pad, where my buffing, the pads are moving very fast, almost like a rotary. I find that speed, more than pressure remove defects well on my PC. Personal preference.

Here are pictures the day after with not only one but two iso-alcohol wipedowns. Granted it isn't perfect because I would usually finish off with SSR1 and then an LSP, this was left bare. You may notice light swirls in the second picture but that is because I wiped off the pollen with the water and not with S&W.
Alcohol water mix sprayed on:
Don't see any evidence of fillers  |

Nice pictures dude, looks good to me. | Thanks for the comments. I have so many tests in my head that I want to do but they never get done whether it is time constraints, weather conditions, camera battery dead, etc. I didn't think about doing a video... I think its decent enough to get the point across, plus I did it with my digital camera. Pretty cool that I can take pictures and video with sound with it. So hopefully in the upcoming weeks you'll see more posts like this from me... |
