    CarPro Essence:Cutting And Finishing Abilities Video (With different pads)

    Hello, i noticed alot of people keep asking about Essence, so i did a video testing the cutting and finishing capabilities with different pads.

    i tested 4 panels. with the following pads

    (all tests were done with one buffing cycle, the results could have and would have gotten better)

    Machine Used: Boss G21

    Pads tested
    Lake Country ThinPro Foam Orange Cutting Pad
    Lake Country ThinPro Foam White Polishing Pad
    Meguiars Microfiber Finishing Pad
    Rupes White Foam Finishing Pad

    PLEASE NOTE
    i am not good at editing videos, trimming videos, so please forgive the poor editing skills, the video is a bit long, you can skip to see the results. ( i will try to get better at that)

    also the Rupes White Foam Finishing Pad, is not in this video currently, my Cam died, and i had to film again, i will upload and add it into the video later!

    but for the people interested now, the Rupes white foam finishing pad, did enhance the gloss, but left a ton of defects.

    here is the link to the video,

    https://youtu.be/48OL5Egs6Bw

    overall its a pretty interesting video, i hope it helps people wondering about essence, i got fantastic results, for one step, as the test subject was a 1999 Ford F150 that was really beat up!

    if you guys have any questions dont be afraid to ask, hope you guys enjoy the video.

    Essence is the best product to come out in the last few years imo.
