    Re: Meguiar's microfiber cutting pads

    Hi, so Menzerna 400 would work great with Meguiar's MF Cutting pads? I'm looking to buy a compound for Megs MF pads, I can buy Menzerna 400 1liter or D300 500ml for the same price.

    Hello, not a problem, but I'm not able to remove stains from Yellow foam pads, it is normal? I was using Keramik polish, cleaning with warm water and using Claw brush to remove residue.

    Re: Rupes Blue Foam, not cutting?

    Yes it looks good to me too haha, that scratch was on the corrected side too, blue foam + hc400 removed it.

  15. Re: Do I need to wash my car after I use detailing clay to clay the paint?

    Thats bad, cause I was going to use ECH2O 1:40 as lubrication to clay. It should leave SiO2 on the car, and if Eraser will not clean that - not good.

    I can see Rupes Microfiber pads in blue color and in white. Both are Coarse pads, as far as I know they "upgraded" them?
