Looks great! What speed did you use on the 3401?

Nice job! Can I ask why you prefer the Thin Pro's on the flex as opposed to the thicker pads such as the Hybrids. I've read that Hybrid plus Flex is a match made in heaven, but branching out is never a bad idea :D

Thank you! I believe I was on speed 5.

I usually use the CCS pads on my 3401 but grabbed a thin pro and went at it. They work pretty well with it. No real reason I guess as to why lol.

I much prefer thicker pads on the 3401.

Thank you bud!


Very sharp Justin, how do you like the McKee's Interior cleaner?

It's the only interior cleaner I use. I buy it by the gallon.


Great work Justin.

Thanks!

How was the performance of the Iron Remover (and the smell)? Is it thicker than the standard, Iron-X? Thanks

Great work!

Thank you.

The iron remover worked awesome. As for the smell it's much more pleasant than iron X. Has the same smell as the McKee's wheel cleaner. And yes it's thicker than iron-x.

Also to note is that it's priced about the same for 16oz vs 500 ml of iron-x . And cheaper for a gallon vs 4L of iron-x.
