I detailed my GF's Black Mustang with enough swirls to use my standard 2 step polish XMT #4 w/ orange pad, and nano w/ white pad. All with my PC.
I had something interesting happen with my first...

Hello all,
I am looking into using DG 105 to protect my Black Evo from the elements during the rainy months here in central florida. And I have some questions...

How easily is it removed after...

DP clay (way better than Pinn)
DP sealant, got it free at detailfest and it looks amazing!
Pinn wax applicators, Megiurs cause swirls on Jap clear.
Cobra waffle weave glass towels

I really like using Pinnacle Paintwork Cleanse after I use an abrasive polish. It does not fill much. I dont have to worry about tape lines, or any left over polish residue because the cleaner will...

You are fine. The only way to know would be to get a paint gauge. I just recommend that with Jap spec cars, more attention should be paid to proper washing techniques. This way you dont have to...

Try the 106 first, if that doesnt give you what you want, use it again...
SIP is not needed for mitsu clear. Use the 106 and learn how to wash without inducing swirls. Then in 6-8 months use 106...

That is not too much at all. Prices range not only quality of work , but the area in which you work in.
For example, I live in Orlando, and my parents live in Palm Beach county.
I detail cars in...

I have been looking forward to this since I missed last years detail fest!
Its great to hear that the gift package for registered members is now worth $150!
This show is going to rock!

Very light swirls...
It does not fill like a pure oily glaze. And the acrylic glaze lasts alot longer.

I do that with my black mitsu. The clear is soft, and I dont mind reapplying nuba wax all the time. The only glaze I have used is of the acrilyc variety...
If I polished my car every time I saw...

The Makita has a larger range of speed, 600-3,000.
The Flex's range starts at 1,000...

I personaly want to finish at around 800. (start at 800, go to 1000, correct at 1200, and then go back...

WOW looks nice! I really want to learn the rotary, but I am torn between the flex orbital. Now I have even more options...:confused:

Its a good idea. Why most people dont do it is because it is a lot of extra work. The main thing is that you do it before you wax or seal. This will help the protection bond to the surface, and it...

I always use a pinn paint cleanse, or wolfgang after I polish.
Or before I wax for that matter...

But, if you noticed the white pad turned gray, alot like the color of 106ff.
Have u noticed...

Wolfgang is more of a stand alone sealant. Topping it with a nuba does not enhance the look IMO. Go with the fourstar it is very very easy to work with, and works nicely with souveran.

Why are paint thickness guages not popular in the USA?
I have recently been on some UK forums, and in most of the details I see a paint gauge is used. The cheapest qaulity gauge I could find was...

The weather we are having right now in florida is perfect for using menzerna.
When it is hot and humid though, menzerna can be hard to remove.
I have found that it still does the job, but then...

Welcome, always nice to see another EVO owner join the forums!
Second what Super said, no orbital of pure wax/ sealants. Its a waste of product, and time. Plus it just feels good to massage the wax...

I dont think you are allowed to have sex in a car in a public place in any state... But just for fun, F-150... HaHA

Once you get a edge off than you should be able to pull the hole thing off.
The film is designed to release easily.

SO true! :iagree:

Nice MR! I have a TB SE. How do you like your EVO? Its nice to have another evo owner on AG. So far I think its just me, you and Truls. Maybe a few more...
Hope your garage is finished soon....

I really like UPP, and WG. Once I run out of them I will try some ## offerings.

Hell yea!! :righton::righton:

I am sure that 2 layers 12-24h apart would be better. But sometimes I cant wait to drive my DD for a full day or 2. I do use very thin layers, I have become quite good at it actually. If I have the...
