Have you tried an iron remover? I have close to 1 year old CanCoat on my Tacoma that had began to look weak on the hood. I washed it, sprayed Gtechnique iron remover, agitated, let dwell a couple of...
I always look forward to your posts. Awesome quality work! It seems that I can never 100% nail the correction. There’s always something, taillights, plastic bumpers or something else that I can’t get...
A friend asked if I could get the sanding scratches and rotary marks out of his recently painted project truck. I did a two step correction with Meguiars 105/microfiber pads and Sonax Perfect Finish...
If Eraser is needed after Essence, are there any advantages to using Essence instead of any other polish? I haven’t used it but thought it might cut some polishing time for daily drivers that are...
Thanks and I agree! Since the original post my selection of chemicals has multiplied considerably. I still like Blackfire AIO topped with Collinite for one steps. I haven’t found anything that wipes...
You might consider Gyeon CanCoat. Looks good and should last 12+ months easily on a garaged vehicle. I have been using Cerakote wipes on textured plastic. Don’t think AG carries them. Doesn’t do well...
I was using 4 or 5 drops of polish and starting adding a light spray of diluted ONR. I don’t have an air compressor to I try to clean the pads by wiping with a MF towel between panels...
I do have both white Lake Country pads but didn’t try them. I did try a blue pad. It really seems like the wipe off is the problem. I did a black Infiniti last year that was about the same. Very...
Most of my towels are Cobra polishing cloths. Not sure of the gsm. I also have several plush one sided MF towels that seemed to cause marring. I will look into Perfect finish and Dr. Beasley’s....
Disclaimer: not a professional. I have been prepping a friend’s 6 week old Black Camry for CQ 3.0 UK and having trouble getting the finish I want. It has only been washed by the dealership with what...
It’s really frustrating when I can’t reach places between the seat and console with my vacuum. I detail for family and friends only so I’m just using a small shop vac with a crevice tool. How do you...
Thank you sir! I had assumed that neither DA drive would give sufficient pad rotation but after seeing the larger mass of the 12 mm it makes sense that it would. I used it successfully today on a...
I have had a chance to use the 1” backing plate and rotary drive. I’m getting rotary marks on A and B pillars with orange foam pads and Blackfire One Step. What advice do you have to prevent this?...
I tried a white foam pad with the rotary and it works well. I was hoping the 3 mm orbital would give some level of correction if needed but just not enough power. This is my first cordless tool and...
Picked up a Flex Pixie and used it for the first time yesterday. Really disappointed in the lack of power with a1” foam pad and short throw. Any suggestions on how to get more correction? I thought...
Has Blackfire AIO been reformulated? Finished one qt that I have had for several months and opened one received last week. Could just be my imagination but it seems that it has less cut, takes longer...
I’m really bad at getting photos but here are three: one before shot of the door and two after finishing. Sorry, they are out of order. Thanks again for the advice!
