The plastic plug is easy to lose (at least for me). An easy fix is to add liquid rubber for tool handles on the end of the brush. Dipped the brush with about 5 coats of it on the end and it has...
Even better, for those with that kind of bent (me...) the new 2010 Fusion will be available as a hybrid with a reported 38 mpg overall rating. With that car, the Escape and the European Focus and...
On a DD I learned a long time ago to accept a certain amount of rock chips, minor dings (door bumps) and other imperfections in the paint. When they total up to an unacceptable amount it's repaint...
OK, I have learned to live with the lids on Sig II and Sov but I tried my new jar of Fusion today. Max has GOT to find a better jar for a $175.00 wax.... It took a minute to get the #!%* lid back on....
You could put a good carnauba over the sealant as it will "warm up" the look. IMO, I would not put NXT over my sealant but that's just me... I like a nice carnauba....
If your paint is real soft, I doubt that you will need 105 and a cutting pad. For soft paint, try your mildest polish with a finish pad and then start working up until you find a combination that...
If you are going to the effort of learning, buy the Makita rotary or equal (DeWalt, Metabo, Flex, Hitachi....). You have some great products and the rotary will help utilize them them to the fullest....
I still use SSR every now and then. You need to work it a little longer. If you still have any marring of the paint, go to a blue or grey finishing pad. I have and use Menz Nano, Final...
I think you need to take this area back to bare metal, prime and start from scratch. Does the entire car have this problem? I know how my temper would flare if this was my car and these...
Plexus it what I use but I'm sure others here have their favorites. As far as the pads go, you can use the white pad with SSR1 but I would probably use the grey or blue pad with SSR1 to see if they...
Use a finishing pad and something like SSR1 or Menz Nano or Final to get rid of the haze. It is also easier to finish without any holograms in soft plastic with a PC or other orbital polisher. I...
Try using 800 grit and if that does not work, 600 grit to eliminate the clear. Use an eraser similar to a pink pearl as a sanding block and try to work just where the clear is until it is...
The ballasts and igniters on some of the kits out of China are water resistant to a point but they are not water proof. The better kits are completely water proof but this is one of those...
The same person posted over on Green Hybrid. I asked them the same question and they never have answered. It was the first post for this person on both forums.
The wax should lube the pad well enough without a spritz. If you want to however, any QD would work. Polishes however do need a little help at the start....
Funny you should ask. Tried this last night after buying a bottle. It seemed to work OK using the directions on the bottle (2 OZ for a full load). The wife DID make me run a rinse cycle after though...
