    Re: Richy's M105 video (no dusting technique)

    is just me or do three dots not seem to be enough to properly prime a pad ... and my experience with not using enough product is marring on paint due to not enough lubrication ... personally i prime the pad with lets say 6 dots, rub them and spread them then com back with pea size dots.

    Fred, don't forget that I'm not priming the pad with product. The pad is already damp. The product works better when not overused. Trust me. Try it. Wet the pad, spin it dry at 3000 rpm and use a small amount. (I think using the B & S pads help too; they are my go-to pads now). Let me know how it works for you.

    Great video Richy !

    I wish the DA would work with method too but it behaves much differently on a DA in my experience .

    For rotary if you spritze with water after yourve buffed 105 dry it can also reactivate it and you dont use as much product.

    Yes, it's amazing how much product does get sucked up into the pad and can still be used.

    Believe me, if the idiots running this state (let alone the country) keep driving us into the ground, I might just defect

    Thanks a lot for the video!

    I'll try your method now! Same applies to wool pads?

    I use the black wool Tuff Buff pads almost exclusively now as they really don't lint any. I don't wet the TB pads. I just use a few drops (2 or max 3) and then work it in the area before ramping up the speed a bit. Using pressure is also very effective too, not just speed. Hope that helps.

    Thanks again!

    earlier when I learned about priming! I found loads of sling issues and wondered how I could make it work! (turned out that I could still work with it but at lower speeds)

    This method seems compatible with higher speeds!

    Thanks for the vid, Richy. Good info, though I use a DA. Can you maybe discuss the difference, if any, using your tool versus a DA? Any change to your method at all?
    Also, great thread. Your follow-up replies are excellent and the discussion is surprisingly civil. Thanks for your attention to the thread. Wish they all went like this one.
    Oh, and I hardly even noticed the accent. Canadians are ok with me.
