HD Speed, just want to double check some stuff here.
https://www.autogeekonline.net/forum...technique.html
Little confused here, read this thread and the guy used dime sized spots, people replyed to use pea size dots...........now is this after you prime the pad with product then use the pea size dots.
Find it hard to believe if using dime sized or pea sized spots on a new pad without priming the pad is too much product for HD speed, you would think just priming the pad would be enough.
You can tell I don"t do this much. LOL
So is the correct way, prime the pad, then pea sized dots or what.?

Prime the pad by using 4 pea sized dots...or use the 3 and sprits with half a trigger pull of clay lube/detail spray...then just use 3 pea size drops afterwards till you use a new pad or clean your pad.

No prime, 5 pea sized drops, let dry for atleast a half hour before removal. Better yet, do the one step to the entire vehilce then go back and wipe off. This let's the Poxy part of Speed set up and cure.

I was unsure my first time using Speed & primed the pad. I wasn't too happy. Next go-round I just put a pea-sized drop in the middle, and squeezed out a thin circle of product around the circumference of the pad. Like I said, thin circle.
That was a much better way than priming the pad IMO.
And I usually do half my truck, have a beer break, then remove. It removes very easily.
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

Paul, you do it a little different than me...........I usually knock off 4-5 beers, then proceed. LOL........then I sit back and wonder, What happened to this mess. LOL
Gonna let her rip this weekend, and see how it turns out.

Where did you get "one beer" from "beer break"??
Lol
Good luck, Rich. Once you get your technique down, you'll be off and running.

Re: HD Speed, just want to double check some stuff here.
With an AIO like speed or any AIO, you apply the product heavy or wet. That means more than just dime or pea size product on a pad.
I apply roughly 2 thin/med circular lines of speed around the pads. With polisher off--spread around the panels and the go to town!
It works great---cuts nice and finishes out nicely as well without splattering.

I've read before that you don't prime the pad when using Speed. What is the reason for this?

Is this really how you've been using Speed with good results? What speed are you running your polisher on? I use only 4-5 pea sized dots on my pads and maybe 3-4 subsequently with great results. In my experience being a bit liberal with HD products seem to work best.
