I recently got a set of 3" buffing/polishing pads off Amazon and I need to get a better understanding about how to use them in general. If there's a tutorial out there that explains them I'd...

Hey noorth, I'm just now getting around to doing this and have the 3D One ordered. I have a very step learning curve with what pads do what so please forgive me. From what I'm understanding, I'm to...

Thanks for the advice guys.

Last thing. If I order some base color coat from touchupdirect, do I have to use THEIR 2K clear or can I use a different brand like Dupli-Color?

I've got this '02 Taurus that has aged unusually badly on the hood roof and trunk top, and if I can just get these parts addressed the car will look so much better. I'm not aiming for anything...

Wow, thanks for all the great advice. This really gives me a good info base on which to start building my finishing knowledge.

Thanks for all the good recommendations. Much appreciated.

I want a tire dressing that's very flat with no sheen at all. Ideally I'd like it to leave the tire just looking like very fresh rubber. Problem is, everything the local car store carries gives a...

I've got a great survivor '96 Jeep Cherokee in Flame Red. I had a local professional detailer do some kind of cutting process a few years ago that really brought the bang back out of the color. Since...

Then the G9 it is. looking at some used online. If I wear it out I'll be able to afford new no problem, and if I don't I can sell it for about the same as I paid for it. Only thing is I still...

Yes I see. Looks like a good looking used Grot's G9 comes up on ebay somewhat often at about $100. At only 20 more than the HF that def seems like the better deal. Only thing is the used ones...

Thanks for the info Desertnate. Sorry I was wrong polisher size, but yes if 6" is the typical size then that'll do just fine.

Is there a reason the Griot's G9 is much better than the Harbor...

I need an ok quality dual action DA 7" polisher. It'll get just DIY type use so it doesn't need to be as high in quality as say a professional would need. Been spending a lot of $$ lately on...

I'm in the market for a 7" polisher but because I've spent soo much on equipment lately I'm having to cheap out and go with the lowest cost option that'll get the job done. I've found some...

Is there a conversion spindle that lets a regular angle grinder turn a 7" polishing pad, basically converting it into a polisher? If so, what is the part called and where can I find it? Thanks.

Yes it's scuffed. A good soap and scrub doesn't effect this spot at all. The wheel didn't get into the blue so at least i've got that on my side.

Really good to know there's a relatively simple...

Not realizing what I was doing I burned the crap out of my paint job trying to remove some vehicle lettering with a drill and an eraser wheel.

What's a good long lasting tire dressing?

I used to use this stuff called Wipe New - Tires but it's since been discontinued. There was a process. First you soaped and scrub cleaned the tire,...
