thanks for the great review as always. i want to try this on one my cars that sits outside the socal sun. sprinkler over sprays, bird droppings, and these mysterious "bee droppings" that's sprayed...
I picked Techique #1, but then contemplated between technique and tool. So Tool would be my strong #2 or could even be #1 if i can pick two. I feel for the most part, someone doesn't need to be an...
IME, EVERYTHING will scratch your car. Depending on the paint system, some will be more obvious while others won't be as obvious. I always reference soft paint. You can scratch it by just sliding...
I realized on modern cars, EVERY panel has a bit of convexity(<-- i just had to look that word up..lol) The hood, roof, doors, and even trunk lids are mostly slightly bowed. My 92 nissan sentra's...
thanks!! ask and I shall receive! I guess the key phrase is "variable contact" I'll give those a try for sure! Doesn't look to be all that common? Searching in google doesn't show much. On...
Thanks, i'll give BOSS MF pads a try, but I haven't really needed to use MF pads since my biggest battle has been black, soft paint. My cars aren't scratched too bad, so haven't gone all that...
I recently bought a Rupes 21 Mark 2 kit w/ 7" pads and realized I don't even use the entire surface area of the pad due to the size and the panel I'm working on. It was on a door. I got pretty good...
lol, I know where you're coming from. But, in the end, you'll learn a lot from this 1st go around or this type of paint. Sorry, I don't have any experience w/ cquartz finest. I've only used...
Sounds like you have soft paint. From my experience, Meguiars has some really good budget friendly compounds and polishes up to a certain stage. If you're looking for perfection, you may need to...
Not seeing this review, i just bought the metro sidekick a couple weeks ago. Initially, feeling the power with my hands, i was impressed. Putting my hand next to the outlet, it was able to move my...
This car is going to be a weekend warrior, if that at times. So, mainly garage queen for now... lol. I've been trying for this car since the launch date was reviewed or maybe before that. Like lots...
Thanks! what does it mean exactly for it to be semi permanent? So does it have the properties of a permanent coating, but breaks down or wears off like a traditional wax/sealant where i don't have...
Thanks for the congrats everyone. The coating part is where I'm at a stand-still right now. Not sure what to do, so I may just do the old school Meg Carnabu wax formulation while I figure it out. ...
I'm not a pro by all means, but I found using the correct MF towel and Mike Philips 10% IPA dilution works for me. When I say the correct MF towel, I mean some MF towels don't wipe well, they smear....
Thanks for the responses. Hmmm, i was initially awed by ceramic coating, but now I feel like I just a need a good sealant and top it off w/ a wax or something. Wolfgang Uber Sealant looks real good...
no additional pictures, but I wanted to follow up that i was able to remove all of the sanding or buffing marks using Meg Yellow pad with Meg UP. It cleaned it right up looking like LSP or fresh new...
I can't seem to find much info on what people do AFTER their paint coatings advertised life span. So what has everyone done on here after their coating? Did you polish the existing...
Thanks for the review. Can you elaborate on your method of cleaning the pump and the applicator pads? I have this issue. It seems to leak around the base after my initial use.
Also, did you use...
Thanks. I've been going to those already. If I have time, i'd like to go to their wet sanding class in Oct. Nothing against Meguiars, but they only use their own products and rightfully so. ...
Thanks! its awesome!! i love it, but I haven't really ripped on it, yet. Drove about 650 miles under boost to get home. More of a break in drive than anything. I boosted a few times, but it...
Thought I'd post my findings and progress on here since I've been placing an order seemingly every weekend. I also posted this on CivicX.com. Just took delivery of my new baby.
