    Re: How I store my MF’s and pads

    Holy cow! I count 35+ large tubs. I would have to think those tubs hold upwards of $500 worth of supplies, so that's a large chunk of change in that shed. You must have several locks on it lol.
  2. Re: Before I start picking up a DA polisher I have a lot of unanswered questions ...

    I'd caution against a HF polisher. I had the same thought a few years ago when I bought one of their inexpensive rotary polishers. I figured doing my own cars once or twice a year would be fine. I...
  3. Re: Before I start picking up a DA polisher I have a lot of unanswered questions ...

    Another point with the badges and trim: You're not necessarily going to damage badges and trim with a DA, but you will likely damage your pad if you hit up against badges or trim.

    Re: Found a Bargain Pressure Washer

    They probably overstocked them here with the short summer season. I did do a brickseek and several nearby Lowe's have the 2000 psi version on clearance. Not all have them marked down, but a few do. ...

    Found a Bargain Pressure Washer

    After coming back to Autogeek recently to see research what the best polishes and pads are these days, one of the threads got me thinking about getting a pressure washer and a foam gun. I was on...

    Re: Looking for polish suggestions for GM paint

    Yeah, that's how I've felt. My last car was a Pontiac Bonneville, and I had a hard time getting swirls out even with the Menzerna Intensive polish. I haven't done any cutting on our current cars,...

    Re: Looking for polish suggestions for GM paint

    Well, you are working in the detail shop of a GM dealer, so you've got a lot of experience with those paints. I'll have to consider the Megs. I know they have a solid reputation.

    Re: Finders fee for referrals

    I would just offer a discount on details for the electronic shop's owner(s)/employees, and nothing more.
  13. Re: Menzerna SIP shootout with Optimum Cutting Pad vs. LC Orange

    Probably right. I did think of doing it against the yellow, but I've tried the yellow before and it did leave hazing. So I didn't think it was worth while.
  14. Menzerna SIP shootout with Optimum Cutting Pad vs. LC Orange

    Well I just got the Optimum MF cutting pad and wanted to give it a whirl last night. I'm pretty impressed. My experience is limited to Menzerna SIP with an orange LC flat pad, and I wasn't totally...
  15. Re: When did the GG polisher change from Professional to Amateur??

    I just got my GG a couple weeks ago. The box says "Professional", but the actual unit and the manual do not. Both the polisher and the manual say 2-3 for waxing and 4-5 for polishing.

    Re: Stepping up from least aggressive

    Since no one else has replied, I'll give my amateur opinion. I don't know if there is a clear cut answer really. Not having experience with more than a couple of polishes, I'm assuming most react...

    Re: DA Orbital Worth It?

    Buy a DA, you won't regret it. I never tried polishing by hand, but I've always waxed. When I first bought my PC several years ago and did half the hood of my car (10 year old Olds), even my wife...

    Re: Detail Panel by Panel

    I would think the panel approach is tougher because then you run the risk of running over a freshly completed section with your first compound step and having to go over it with the final polish...

    Re: Throwing myself to the wolves: Web site

    I think what he meant wasn't blue and green, but a blue-green (teal) color. I think you need more pictures, and especially larger and clearer headlight shots if that is your focus.

    Nice car. I think your camera lens needs cleaning. Most every picture looks blurry on the left side.
