So, I've coated the car a few weeks ago and already I'm seeing these spots in the picture below. What are they? Iron particles? or something else? Anyway I can remove them safely without effected...

Yeah its either a love it or hate it color. Its a difference hue of yellow/gold/green depending on the lighting.

This was the first time I worked with a coating and I think I did pretty well. This weekend I'm going to be doing my wife black car and will be applying Cquartz, lets see how that works out.

A few weeks ago my brother and I spent three days detailing our cars, mine was the S4 and his the M4. We followed a similar process on both car, the Audi need a bit more correction than the BMW.

Evan, do you use the suede towels or an applicator such as the one from CarPro? or do you use the supplied applicators?

Thanks for the tips guys. The car is polish and read to be coated tomorrow.
I try to work in a small area at a time. What is the recommended work area size?

Also, how long would it take to...

I'm on Long Island, NY. Will most likely apply on Sunday, forecast says 80 degrees and 45% humidity.

Thanks for the tips guys.

Any suggestion on using the suede towels and CarPro applicator.

Hi,

I'll be applying Gtechniq C1 & EXO V2 to my vehicle this weekend. I wanted to know if there was a definitive guide anywhere on the application process? I've watched a couple of videos on...

So I go the EcoSmart lights from Home Depot which I'll be using this weekend. Hopefully they do a good job.

What's the consensus with the Ecosmart bulbs from home depot?

Do these look like single diode? Look pretty good for the price.

So what light bulbs are people using now? What is the best option? I was at home depot the other day and I say some Cree 5000K bulbs, they looked liked a single diode for $10, are those any good? ...

I've always wanted an eclectus!

Same comment as above. I have a white S4 and would like to know your process. What compound/polish and pads did you use?

Looking to buy a 5.5 inch Lake Country flat yellow pad from someone local, on long island, ny or queens. Let me know if anyone has an extra pad they're willing to part with. Thanks.

Btw, which of the megs pad would be comparable to the LC yellow pad?

I only have the 5 inch backing plate for the 5.5 pads and I have an orange pad as well. If I can use the 6.5 with the 5 in plate then I may be interested, thanks for the offer. Or I may look into...

I didn't see a classified section on the forum anywhere so I though I'd post in off topic.
I forgot to purchase a yellow LC flat pad with my last order and I need one for this weekend. I don't...

Thanks guys! I see your points on speed, I know it will come with more practice. But to tell you the truth, there was a point where I almost thought of giving up and having someone do the detail...

So I detailed my first car this past weekend and I though I'd share. It is my wife's car which is a daily driver and the paint had been neglected pretty badly (car washes, dealer washes, etc). ...

Thanks!

Thanks for the suggests. I went ahead and followed up with M205, PO85RD and BlackFire. I used the white pad with the M205 on 6 with firm pressure and that did help. Below are some pics. As you...

Thanks for the suggestions guys. However I don't have any additional products or pads and I need to finish up today as my wife needs the car for work. Do you think a second pass with M105 will...
