I usually follow up with the white pad and 205, but I can't see any difference afterwards. Maybe I need better lighting in my garage or perhaps my technique is good enough for cutting but not good...

I think rinsing first is optional, after you foam you wash with buckets. Then you can dry the car. eg:If you are washing a truck that just spent the weekend in the mudd you would probably rinse 1st...

Sorry for bumping an old thread but it is indication that I searched first, How much HP are we looking for in a good vacuum? Do we really need 4-6hp vac's ? It looks like some are getting away with...

Thanks I appreciate any advice, I'm totally new to everything detail related. One think I have noticed is everything is pretty time consuming.

I know this is an old thread, but this looks amazing, I wonder if I can just use the hose, I don't have a pressure washer, Today I tried Folex & this was the best I was able to achieve on the...

Today I did the driverside fender, How come I cant get it perfect? Do I not have enough patience? or do i need something better then the porter cable to correct faster. I guess most of my...

how to handle that, micro fiber / terry cloth cover on the porter with some sort of metal/chrome polish?

No I have a Porter Cable, I am just really slow & get tired fast and usually get interrupted in the middle of working. So have been doing the car in sections. Anyone know how long it should take to...

I did the drivers side door today, I haven't touched the front fender but to be honest I don't think I need to, maybe just put some wax. Looks like the numerous washes cleaned up parts of...

Did some more sections today, however I didn't have my good camera with me so I had to use my cellphone camera as I wasn't at home. I am still finding m105 quite necessary to cut...

Hi guys, I am going to post all my results here in this thread. I just recieved my order earlier this week and spent today doing the hood, the roof & drivers side rear fender. I have owned this car...

well this one ofcourse, well it inspired me to make a few more passes on my rear fender & I think it came out a lil better.

how many passes does it take to achieve what was done on the trunk, I have a porter cable and M105 and looking for some inspiration,lol. Not sure if I could achieve those results, I am working on my...

I see, so just hit it with 205 first and see how that goes and if not enough then try the 105 if I am not satisfied with 205's results?

I have one of those Gilmour style foam master things(lame?) and Chemical Guys Citrus wash & clear gloss ( CWS_301 & CWS_302). But I actually still have some of the old NXT soap left thats been...

I've been lurking the pass few days and decided to join. I recently bought a new car and decided I want to take care of it but first practice on my old car as it is quite neglected. This place has a...
