It’s been years since I’ve been here, and I need advice. I have a 2011 F150 daily driver, 94,500 miles on her. Paint is decent condition. I live at the beach, so I deal with salt spray (daily). I’ve prepared the paint on my truck (washed and clay bar). I’m going to use the “old” Fourm Favorite on it Klasse Twins with Pinnicale Souveran as a topper. I have to go old school all by hand because I don’t have a DA Polisher.
ive never used Klasse before. Please any tips will be greatly appreciated. The reason for using Klasse is because it was a favorite when I was last here and it’s what I have.

Get a real cleaner wax and you’ll get mucho better results.

Get a polisher too... I can’t even imagine working on anything by hand in the year 2021

Thanks for the advice. What would you recommend?
I understand about the polisher, I’m wanting a Porter Cable but budget always comes into play. It is on my list.
If they go on sale I’m on it!!
I know prices are down but have to save some.


Mike, What PC package would you recommend for a starter?

I had one years ago. Since then I know they have upgraded it. The one I had was good.

Mike,

Here's what I would get,

Porter Cable 7424XP (https://www.autogeek.net/porter-cable-7424xp.html)

5" backing plate (https://www.autogeek.net/lc43125.html)

6 of these --> RUPES 6" or 150mm Yellow CP Foam Pads (Rupes DA Yellow Fine Foam Pad - 6 Inch)

BLACKFIRE One Step 32 oz. (https://www.autogeek.net/blackfire-total-polish-seal.html)


I could detail anything with the above and start a brand new car detailing business turning out pro-grade work on anything.


The 16 ounce bottle of BF One Step is like $30.00 so might as well get the quart. It's $10.00 more than the 16 ounce bottle and you get twice as much.



Also gets some good towels. I like these for BF One Step.
