m105 substitute plus pad
ok so I am looking for something that has more working time than 105 when being used with a rotary. It seems to be drying WAY to fast when I use it with the purple foam wool pad and it doesnt give me any correction really (the mf pad on my DA with m105 gave me ALOT more cut and working time and I loved it)
I am looking for a better wool pad also. any suggestions?

You might consider Meguiars Ultimate Compound, polishing compound, rubbing compound, meguiars rubbing compound, meguires, meguiars polish, auto compound polish The cut is similar but not as high as 105, but it is SMAT (non-diminishing) and is cheap, too. It has a VERY long working time. I have not used it with a rotary, but by observations are using DA.

Are you priming the pad prior to begin working?

Re: m105 substitute plus pad
I like using 3m wool pads as they are a very aggressive pad. Schlegel's also offers a wool pad that is pretty good also.
I have no experience with them, but I've heard people were getting great results with the Tufbuf black lampswool pads. I hear they have great cut, finish extremely well of a wool pad, and doesnt shed any fibers or very little.
A nice alternative to M105 is M95. Same cut as M105, but has a pretty long working time and is much more user friendly. It's my goto when its hot out. It doesnt finish as well as M105 but it doesnt matter since you should always be following it up with a polish anyways.

if you wanna keep using m105 try the kevin brown method. search on google, but he uses a quick detailer and sprays the pad then puts 3drops of m105. or you can add baby oil to the m105 bottle and it won't dust as much and will have a longer working time.

Re: m105 substitute plus pad
I was thinking about power gloss. but im still stuck on which wool pads to get, Is there a small wool pad as well? Maybe like a 3 in for tight areas?

Re: m105 substitute plus pad
I only work on my own and family cars and I really like - Meguiars Ultimate Compound.
I recently used it on a family's members Chevy sedan and it worked well at removing rubbed on paint. I was also amazed at how much better (imo) the Chevy clearcoat was as compared to my two Honda's.

that just seems wierd. working outside in the heat also diminishes the working time of m105 from my experience.
