Thanks for all the suggestions!!

Spent the better part of Sunday compounding/polishing and waxing my 2004 F150 XLT. Was extremely impressed with the results, especially for my first time machine polishing. Used Chemical Guys VRP to...

Will do on the pictures.

Yes, it was neat to see the results especially for my first time using a DA to polish a vehicle. I'm sure things will only improve as I gain more experience. Although I'm...

Finally got around to machine polishing my truck. Have spent the last few weeks getting a TON of maintenance stuff done to hopefully help keep this old truck running for a long time. Once I was happy...

I had the same results with Megs UC and a Lake Country orange pad with a GG6 on my 2004 F150 just yesterday. Was my first time machine polishing, and I admittedly worked a little quickly, but got...

Sounds good. Thanks. I have ONR on hand, so that will be easy enough. With a 2.5 yr old and a 4 month old at home it's going to be tough to fit everything into one day.

Getting things setup to polish up my wife's '16 Ford Flex. It's in overall good condition, so I'm thinking just a one step polish will be all it needs. A test spot will determine that though. What...

Well, I'm all in now. Took advantage of AG's 25% off sale and free shipping and ordered the following:

-GG6
-LC 5-1/2" flat pads (6 white, 4 orange, 2 black)
-3" DA backing plate (I already...

Thanks again for the response!!

All of the pictures posted are surface scratches, swirls and marring. None of them will catch a fingernail. There are a few deeper scratches that I did not take...

Do you recommend the Thinpro pads over the regular LC flat pads? I was thinking the flat pads would be a bit more forgiving. They are also more economical.



For LC pads in general, do you...

I responded to your previous post before I saw this one. Seems to have gotten lost though?

Excellent advice!! Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!!

Did you see my pictures back in post #21?...

Thanks for all the replies, suggestions, tips, etc., etc. Much appreciated. I think I'm sold on the GG6. Was originally settled on the HF, but after hearing the bad reviews on the new model and the...

Oh yeah. Already on top of all of the maintenance issues. I had an '07 F-150 that I traded for the '04. Kind of odd going back 3 years, but it gained me nearly 100K miles and the extra room of a crew...

Thanks!! Have already read over that a few times.

Great advice. Thanks!!

I'm going to order the 12 pack mix-n-match of the LC flat pads. Should be plenty to get me going. Going with 5 orange (cutting/compounding), 5 white or green (polishing) and...

Thanks for the reply. I already have Meguiars UC and UP on hand. Sounds like I need to consider a better quality DA. I think I'm going to end up going with the Griot's Garage DA. The review of the...

Thanks for the reply.

Bummer on the new HF DA!!

Recently picked up an '04 F-150 with 57K miles. Truck is in excellent cosmetic shape, especially considering it's 15 years old. One owner, and by the looks of it I'm guessing garage kept. Planning on...
