Microfiber DA System review (D300 Only)

**PAR Detailing** · 03-04-2011, 11:02 PM

Ok so I got the new MF system in but only the D300. I will be getting in the D301 soon but only had the compound at first. I was curious to see how it would work as a one step polish.

I used a GG DA on speed 4.5-5
Compressed air after each section

Before:

AFTER:

Now for a Yukon
Before:

Ok so my thoughts on this system initially are that it works really well. It is very easy to use and you can get alot of correction out of it. In my pictures you will notice a few RIDS which I was not concerned about at all. I wasnt really getting paid to do a one step on the Yukon and on the Altima I was just using it as a test subject (Its my sisters car) D300 finishes down quite well but I can see how there is some haze left by it at times. I didnt follow D300 up this time but will soon to see the difference.

There was minimal dust and fairly long working times. The learning curve was all of maybe 4-5 sections and then I got the hang of it no problem.

It is early to be too gung ho on the system but it looks very very promising for me!

Any questions and comments are welcome!

i cant wait to get this system and try it out. i looking to use this for most of the cars i get and depending on how well D301 does as a AIO i will use either D300 or D301 for the one steps

I wonder what would happen if you used a rotary instead of a DA with this system.... Wait till I get mine in and we'll see!

Nice review, thanks for that. Its nice to see more comments and reviews popping up.

BTW Jon, based on your use of the pads, do you really think you will be able to get to do 20 cars off one pad like they say?

Did you do the yukon in the sun?

I am really liking D300 as a one step right now.

I read Megs say it just doesnt work on rotary but give it a shot who knows. Let me know your results. As far as durability I can easily see 15-20 or more cars out of the pads. And I used one pad for the whole Yukon.

Thank you Im sure more guys will be doing much more thorough reviews but I wanted to throw my .02 in there

Thanks for the review Jon. Do you have other pads/polishes available to finish down the D300? Have you tried this yet? I'm looking forward to trying this system out, hopefully next weekend. I plan to experiment a little with pads/polishes.

Sounds like you haven't read very many reviews so I'll sum it up for you, everyone that has tried it with a rotary including Meg's says it doesn't work. If you do decide to try this with a rotary, please provide us with a review of your experience.

I pulled it half way in the garage and backed it up in the sun to take the pics.

No problem Richard. I have several pads and products (Im a pad junky) to finish down with I just havent taken the time. I want to play around with it more and see what combo works best. I have the D301 coming in but I tend to like to put my own sealant on instead of using an AIO like D301 so I will be searching for the best combo.

I look forward to your findings. Keep me posted on what you find works best for you!
