  1. Re: Most aggressive effective combo for Porter Cable 7424

    I used Megs D300 and Megs Xtra cut 5 in microfiber discs for the painted/cleared/sanded roof and it turned out excellent as far as getting rid of 2500 sanding scratches. Good cutting power that made...
  2. Re: Most aggressive effective combo for Porter Cable 7424

    Has anyone tried the CarPro Denim Orange Peel Removal Pad or other similar pads designed for removing orange peel(I am sure to a certain extent) without wetsanding? I have been seeing good results...
  3. Re: Most aggressive effective combo for Porter Cable 7424

    Thanks, I never even knew about those foam/whool combo pads. Looks they would be much better over yellow foam pads which I never cared for(don't seem to be much better then orange pads and seem to...
  4. Re: Most aggressive effective combo for Porter Cable 7424

    Thanks, I understand the PC will be more work then a rotary, just wanted the most most aggressive/best combo that I can get for the PC for the sanding scratches and deeper scratches.

    Re: Clearcoating Headlights

    It may be Toyota/Lexus vehicles with Opti Lens. I did not get good results with it on my Lexus. I tried a adhesive promoter from Dupli color and had poor results, it went on cloudy and stayed...

    Re: Clearcoating Headlights

    I wanted to go to 2000 grit but most manufactures and people say it needs to be 800 grit for the adhesion promoter, I am kind of worried you will see those scratches when the lights are on even if...

    Clearcoating Headlights

    I tried Opti Lens a few times and it does not last very long on my headlights, a few months at most before they start discoloring again. I am going to try spraying my headlights with a 2K aerosol...

    Re: Mysterious crosshatch scratches on front hood

    I am pretty positive the color is called Nighthawk Black Pearl for Acura which is what is on the TL. This is very disappointing if the paint is failing already. It is a 2008 and always garaged,...

    Re: What is this issue with paint/finish?

    I was afraid of that. The car is only around 10 years old and is always taken care of, washed every week, always has a layer of wax, is polished when heavily swriled. Acura's and Honda's paint...

    Re: Autowerx CeriGlass Guide

    I got the 5" CP pad and glass wipes, hopefully I can get around to doing it tomorrow. How much pressure did you put on the DA when trying to correct the glass? I can't push/put too much pressure on...
