Why not use 16 on a nice finish? Too much rubbing to apply and remove?

Hi have had three cans of Meg's 16 that have been in my South Florida garage for 3-4 years. Is it likely to still be good? I used it on my new graphite gray Infiniti and it looked good and went on...

Hand waxed with.....?

I can't believe 1000 miles is too far for you. I saw a movie about a dog that found its way home from father away than that.

OK -- Postpone sounds better. That makes it easier to walk away. I'd gladly pay for a lesson on my car, but I've got the typical scenarios down pretty well, so full boot camp maybe not so useful. I...

Hi. Thanks Rich. I know what youmean about reading three pages of posts! The plan is prepping for Opti-Coat so we are looking for "perfect" with no polish/oil/filler left behind. We (me) are not able...

I didn't take it as a flame - I took it as an effort to help me. Sorry if it didn't seem that way - I was trying to be funny.

I think the finish down needs a professional. I would even do it by...

I think my Opti-Coat Project is going onto my "Land of Broken Dreams" shelf. Its not the Opti-Coat, its me not being able to get the finish in appropriate condition to lock it down with the Opti. I...

Darn you!

I will try and find one locally.

Everyone - please note that I do not believe that I am instilling these swirls with the MF (although I know that is possible) because I am drawing the MF across...

Tried Optimum Polish II on a black pad. This swirled it - lot. I went back with a white pad with Menz Intensive, and then Green pad with Menz Micro and got back to my base "as good as I can get it"...

I bought their Opimum Polish II when I bought the Opti coat. I'll try it and report back

IPA is Walgreens it says 92%. But I am doing a small spot and 12x12, and lightly drawing the mf cloth in a straight line to clean the polish off, not working it in circles - I wanted to make sure I...

My concern is that I can not get my surface swirl-free. Black, soft clear. I have never been able to get it perfect. It can LOOK perfect after Menzerna Micro Polish with a grey or green pad, but when...

I think I read most posts, and I did see that this came from a family friend. I do not doubt that you that there had been no repaint, but did you ask the friend specifically about the chips? (sorry...

I know you are right, but you are ruining the party!

That is inspirational. I think it will be a while...

Someone brighter than I, could probably repair it.

I'm thinking DeWalt DWP849X.

I have not used my rotary a lot. Has just been in the damp Florida garage. That may be the problem.

At low speeds (it is a Hitachi SP 18VA) it stops, jerks a little and has that pungent aroma of a...

Just ordered Opti-Coat, Optimum Compound II and Optimum Polish II. Thanks for the advice you guys.

OK, not cotton ball, cosmetic pad, but about the same size.

TL - I watched those videos - much more reassuring than something I saw last night where a guy was applying it with a cotton ball.

Oops - of course it fills. I guess I meant would it hide some of what my poor technique has left less than perfect. BTW - I use a rotary - never could get a DA to work for me.

I met Mike Phillips...

Thank you guys. I will look into Opti-Coat. Does it do a little filling to hide minor swirling or holograms? I looked at this a little last night and there was discussion about "high spots" is that a...

Hi - I have a very soft clear. Stupid soft, like where applying and removing Souveran with a plush Cobra microfiber will instill scratches.

My formula has been:

1. Meguiar's 83 for deeper...
