I just finished polishing my truck with the gg6 and don't think I ever went all the way up to 6. I stayed around 5...

LOL.. story of my life; not good, not bad.. but typical!!
To help all those who find themselves faced with this question, I wanted to provide you side to side comparisons of the options.
As you can see there is a definite gauge difference in the regular...
Thanks DCJREDLINE. I am only doing my own cars and this will be my first polish so I am hoping the Meguiars is also more NEWB friendly.
I want the over the counter easiness so I will be going...
Appreciate the responses everyone.
So is it safe to assume my swirl marks are considered "mild"?
So Meguiars reconditioning cream could work? If I went with an orange pad, would I want to...
So I am a newb to polishing and want to do away with all the swirls on my dark blue Daily Driver F-150 but I am unsure if my swirls are mild, moderate, or severe.
After a slew of research and...

Thanks for the response Mike.
I contacted Nick with Autogeek inquiring if a test/review/opinion would be offered on the product and if Autogeek was going to start carrying it. I hope Autogeek...
CC268,
How did it work out using:
LC 5.5" Flat Pads
Orange (4)
White (6)
Blue (2)
I have an 07 F150 quad cab I am getting ready to polish and need advice on the pad count as well.
Thanks Jvanseeters,
I appreciate all your answers as you appear to be the only one to have used this product that is responsive. I am hoping Tersplat shows back up so after I am finished there...
And... is this like typical pads; should I have more of the cutting pad than the polishing pad? How many?
Appreciate your input greatly. I want to make sure I have all the materials I need before...
Is Ford considered a Ceramic?
In an effort to keep it simple, I think I am just going to go with Ultimate Compound and Ultimate Polish.
Do they dust?
Thanks for the input guys.
I'll most likely end up using Ultimate compound and polish or the new microbuff system by nanoskin. Just trying to see what I have in store for me as this will be my...
Mike,
Have you tried the Microbuff system by Nanoskin?
I would love to get your and autogeek's thoughts on the product.
It looks different from Meguiars' Microfiber system and there aren't...
jvanseeters,
New question: did you mix and match the formulas among the pads or do you stick to formula 67 on yellow, speed cut and nano cut on black?
and being the pads as so thin, how do you...
Hi everyone,
I have a 2007 f-150 I want to get the swirls out of and polish up.
Are these considered hard or soft paint.
Wondering how aggressive I will have to be.
Thanks.
Hi guys,
I am getting a bit nervous. I have heard horror stories about over polishing on body lines and wearing through the clearcoat/paint.
I am about to tackle my vehicle (never had any...
Thanks for all the recommendations guys.
Just to clarify though, all these recommendations are similar grit size abrasives, just through different manufacturers correct?
Thanks for your help guys!!
And Cardaddy.. BIG THANKS!!!.... what you said makes perfect sense. I will follow that advice to the letter.
one last question though... what's the difference...
So this is what I think I'm going to do:
1.) Start with ultimate compound (I definitely need two step)...But how do I know when it has done it's job?
2.) follow up with M205 (Unlike Ultimate...
What about M205? user friendly for the beginner?
And from what I am reading it appears as if I need to try both DAT and SMAT product and choose my own preference.
But is their one that's best...
Hello gentleman,
Regarding Diminishing abrasives:
is it something recommended for a beginner? If so, why?
From what I can tell the lack thereof will extend working time but is that...
