If they are just spiderwebs why don't you just use a damp sponge to remove them?


:poke:







Okay, bad joke :o

PlastX by itself (applying by hand) will greatly reduce your spiderwebs. If you want even better results try using foam pads and a DA or Drill with your PlastX. You could also wet sand and then polish

What is that, a screen door?

Hello :)

PC as is Personal Computer?

I have never used plastx.

But wet sanding might be to extreme. If your going to use a drill I'd imagine this would work

Not sure which foam applicator you mean. However, I am pretty sure the pads shown in the video ^ would be able to be done by hand.

At the shop we sometimes to buff out small areas by hand and a MF towel as well. About 1"x1" section (give or take)

i will apply the plastx with this pad and then finish with microfiber towel is that ok?

I've never used the 3rd picture, the even coat. The other 2 seem more for application.

These seem like they would be more designated for the job.

Or this and some 3" pads?

about the even coat i find a topic here:

Is there more bite from Even Coat Microfiber Applicator Pads vs. foam pad? (http://www.meguiarsonline.com/forums/showthread.php?57452-Is-there-more-bite-from-Even-Coat-Microfiber-Applicator-Pads-vs-foam-pad)


and none selling those products iyou mentioned n my country:(
i think i will either buy foam applicator or even coat applicator then finish with either ultimate wipe or Supreme Shine

A foam applicator pad will work fine. Wipe clean with a soft cloth so you won't induce more spiderwebs. You could use a t-shirt or sock for that

What country are you from? How did you find us?
