    Need advice

    I finally ordered mcguires m105 and 205. Right now I have the mcguires da polisher that you connect to a drill. It works great but is it recommended for this type of compound? Thanks for your input.

    The Meguiars Duo is a great combo that will work the with DA power system.

    What are you working on?

    Whats your goal?

    PC 7424 XP isn't a bad polisher by any means, but I'd recommend the Griot's Garage 6" DA instead as it has more power.

    I'd try the Ultimate Compound first, it never seems to amaze me how well it works plus gives you more working time compared to the 105 and wipes off much easier.
    Either way it should work for you.
    Good luck

    This weekend I'm working on a 08 black steel "dark green" ford escape. I have a few swirl marks on it and the hood has some scuffs on it. I'll also end up using it on 2000 BMW z3 and 05 gto

    Here are the stripes I had painted about a month ago. Normally they look great, glossy, very reflective , and smooth. However when I use my lights in the garage it's a whole different story.

    You already hit it with 105/205 combo? And the hair line scratches showed up after?
