I recently used my new Griot's G9 for the first time, also my first time machine polishing. I was using the Boss thin (5 1/2 inch) correcting pads, and as long as I stayed on flat panels - all was...
I have been using the Nanoskin mitt. I use it after I wash each panel, keeping it in the 'clean' pail. I gave away my clay bars after using the mitt. I would have just as much much confidence in any...
You don't "have" to do anything. IF you use a clay bar or a mitt/towel, you will have a cleaner, smoother surface to apply your AIO, and it will bond better. I would suggest you try white correcting...
I have PVD chrome and clear coated wheels from American Racing. One had a bubble pop up and ended up chipping. Another had a chip come off near a valve stem. First one was replaced under warranty,...
I used the Color Magic on a dark charcoal car I had and it worked quite well. The end result was certainly much better than the white specks. Was not a long lasting protectant, but I am sure that...
How do you define "better?" ULW is very easy to apply if kept thin (easier said than done). ULW will have better gloss, but likely not last as long. UFF will apply easier and last longer, with not...
Well, that was a great experience! I applied by hand, using a Chemical Guys hex logic (white) foam applicator. Very pleased with the cleaning, even completely took out a small scratch on trunk lid.

I have the Nanoskin fine mitt, and I have not used clay since. I simply wash each panel, rinse, and then "wash" it again using the NS mitt, which is soaking in it's own bucket of (generously mixed,...
I used 360 this weekend for the first time on my own ride. I am a past user and promoter of DG 501, but I can honestly say my car has never looked better. I plan to top it with WGDGPS within a month,...
A little surprised you haven't gotten any responses on this. I have the Nanoskin mitt and haven't used clay since starting. Yes, you will want to "break in" the mitt on the glass (I use the rear...
I would like to add my thanks for the time and effort as well! I had already purchased WGDGPS just before you began your test, and finally applied it two weeks ago.
Well, we finished up in about 3 1/2 hours from the start of dragging out the hose. He had driven through a touch free wash prior to coming to the house, and while it knocked a few layers off, he was...
