6 Inch Nanoskin Medium

[yellosuzku]

I purchased the Nanoskin 6 Inch Autoscrub Medium Foam Pad and yesterday had my first chance to use it.
I've used many clays in the past. I then tried the Nanoskin speedy prep sponges and most recently I have been using the Carpro Polyshave decon towel.
All of these products worked but were far more laborious than the newest tool.

I used Optimum No Rinse as my lube and broke the pad in on the windshield of the vehicle as instructed. I used the Flex 3401 on speed 3 to complete the task.

I moved onto the hood of the car and did a test spot to see how effective the pad is. The car was very contaminated, very rough feeling by way of the baggie test. After the test spot I was very surprised how well it had worked. The roughness was nearly gone! Another pass with some more lube and it was good to go.

I finished out the rest of the car, which did take a bit longer than expected because the paint was so rough. However that time was not spent tiring out my arms while decontaminating the paint. I did not notice any newly installed marring from the process.

I would highly recommend this product to others for it's ease of use, time saving and effectiveness!

I then finished the car off with a combo of HD Speed followed by HD Poxy.

A few photos of the finished product to make the post prettier:

Nice review.

There is no powerful/efficient way to mechanically decontaminate paint than with the medium pad driven by the 3401.

That's the sweet spot on that their paint looks great

Looks great! I use the Nanoskin on my DA as well and it's saves so much time and works great! The only issue I have had is stalling with my Torq DA. I ordered the 3401 here yesterday and that will make things even better with the forced drive.

I'm slightly confused with the pad.

I have the fine wash mitt and a medium hand applicator.

The fine mitt does a good job of removing the contaminents by hand. You're not supposed to put that much pressure anyways. Then you get something that goes so darn fast.

I know everyone uses it, so I guess I need to be explained the difference. decon by a wash mitt nanoskin is very easy for me. I wonder what I'm missing out on lol.

^You are not missing out on much if your doing your own well taken care of cars. Where it really helps is severely neglected customer vehicles, i.e. white work trucks.

I just got a similar one. Very nice!

And the car looks great!!!:dblthumb2:

Yeah, I can understand on a very neglected car. I would have to use a medium and probably throw my arm out. lol.

I really thought about getting one, but I just can't justify it when the wash mitt works so well.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure the Nanoskin pads are for paint that is pretty neglected. A simple wash with my Cobra clay mitt got my truck slick and ready to polish.
