Hey guys, so this board has helped me a ton and I've clayed for the first time ever two of my vehicles ('14 mercedes slk and '12 Jeep Wrangler). I've done it all by hand though which I followed the claying with P21S shine enhancer and P21S wax on the slk and Meg's Ulitmate polish and Megs Gold Class carnauba on the Jeep.
I like the results, but I'm guessing that I can get a much better finish if I use a DA? So I plan on getting the Porter 7424XP.
Here are my questions though. I need a new backing plate for this right? Can you guys tell me which one I should get? What size as well? Also, what pads should I get. I've heard a lot about the Lake Country pads, but there are so many. From reading it looks like I should get white and black pads for polishing and finishing.
What are the exact pads, though, since there are multiple white and black pads.
Also, I use the white pads for the polish (p21s shine enhancer and ultimate polish) and the black pads for the wax right?
Thanks for the advice.
I'm not doing this as a business as I couldn't even begin to touch what some of you guys are able to do. I'm pretty much just a weekend warrior that really loves detailing my own personal cars.
