Hi there, just a question for you detailers. When polishing a car with the PC, how do you do areas like this?

Like under the spoiler, the area with the number plate is, etc.

Thanks.

get as close as you can and then by hand or maybe use a edge pad but you can burn the paint if you run it along the edge

Most PC pads have a rounded edge that allows you to get into these areas. You have to be careful though. The EDGE2000 system is really good at this. It takes time and a delicate hand to learn this though.


You can always come back with and do it by hand it uneasy with the use of a machine.

The only way to get under your spoiler is by hand.

Spot Buffing 4 inch pads (http://www.autogeek.net/4inch-spot-buffs.html)


I use the 4 inch pads to get in some small places.

I don't know how it is on your car, but to get under the spoiler on my car (if it was still on) would be to take it off. Ours is 4 easy to get to bolts and it comes right off. Then you can just go right over it with the PC.
