    Hmm was hoping not to spend that much but reading reviews on this one, it looks like I would need something this aggressive to get the job done. Would I still be using the same products? looks like...

    and a 5 inch backing plate? Any recommendation on that?
  10. Re: Need to fix the finish on my Lexus myself, Ready to purchase PC or GG and what pads?

    You think none of these products/pads will eliminate the water spots? I honestly want to try this first because if none of this works I will repaint the trunk and roof as they are that bad....these...
