No, we are on the same page....using different angle/lighting in before and after shots SHOWS NOTHING on how the product or procedure worked.

Beauty shots are great, but like I tell my son when...

Myths in Detailing and Detailing Products

...polishing will remove imperfections/swirls/scratches just by applying a polish to the paint, letting it dry, then buffing it off.


...There is...

Yeah, I think they finally fixed it....thanks again for checking!!

Thanks guys...I appreciate it. Glad to see it's only a few isolated incidents!

Thanks again

I've been having some trouble with my website running slow. I've received a couple complaints about my site being slow and videos not loading or taking a long time to load and noticed the problem...

The main thing to remember when polishing is to work the polish in until it has broken down before removing the residue.

My website has a section on polishing with pictures and videos

Car...

Time will vary so it can average anywhere from 4 hours to 8 hours to polish a car that size. The amount of time spent polishing will depend on machine speed, pressure, outside temp. humidity,...

Nothing, they bolt right on...the only difference is the Denali headlights use 9005 bulbs for both low and high beams....instead of 9006 for the low beams in the stock Yukon housing.

Opps, typo...It should read PO85U

Thanks!



Yes they are Boss polished (superfine finish) 301's...I use Meguiars Hot Rims Mag & Wheel aluminum polish (works great and is cheap) or Clearkote Metal polish for light marring or...

Thanks all, it had been a while since I was able to do more than ONR and QD...but with good washing/drying techniques there was no need to polish.



Been busy, family & working on a business...

I don't know about it being out since last summer but I've had some for about 3 months now.

It's a very good finishing polish with less cut than PO85rd, but does removes hazy/micromarring with...

Yesterday was the first day in about 4 months that I was able to do more than a simple wash to my Yukon.

The paint was in good condition with very little spiderwebbing, so little that there was...

Thanks all,



Thanks and the shot where he was closing his eyes was after he hit it. It was actually a great hit in between left/center.

Thanks Budman3, I'm have a blast shooting them.


Thanks I'm using a Nikon 80-200mm f2.8 AF-S lens and some of the shots are with a 1.4x teleconverter.




The D300 focusing and tracking...

Hey all,

Been busy and haven't been able to do too many details lately, but I have been able to work on one of my hobbies..photography. I love shooting sports and I got my D300 last December and...

There is no need to work in a non abrasive wax/sealant because they contain nothing that needs to be broken down or worked in. They are top coats and should be applied as thin as possible with very...

:whs: The only thing I can think is the one on the Flex site could be the prototype model???

:iagree:

Beauty shot are great and IMO should be taken to show off how the car looks after the full detail.....not for showing paint corrections.

Thanks!!

I used speed 6 on both machines in the video to compare the cutting abilities at their top speed.

You can definitely work it in at speed 4 and finish working it in at speed 6. ...

How do you clean your pads?

I've had times where I didn't thoroughly rinse the pad clean and some of the pad cleaner that I used reacted with the polish. This caused the polish to gum up and...

The pad is not vibrating it is spinning off axis - orbiting around the axis, making a small circle as it goes around the center.

I agree with Surfer that the spining doesn't aid in the polishing...

When the PC is off does it spin freely?

Does it spin when on and not on the paint?

Since it's not a direct drive machine the rotation or spining of the pad comes from centrifugal force. Any...

IMO I think it's too abrasive for wheels...it might be fine for chrome but I'd never use it for polished/uncoated aluminum wheels. I use a wash mitt or boar's hair brush for wheels.

I thing you are right...my guestimation was not very accurate on that one:D





No, it is flush but does have some play and will move about half of the height of the felt pad...
