I agree, but based on my observations (never seen the sonax product in action), but the problem is still situation based. When you spray water sideways from a hose onto a waxed-and-beading car, the...
I've seen it at the end of some of the Thursday night class videos. Around the head where the backing plate is and then start coiling it around the buffer I believe is the way.
This post may be more detailed than you're after, but it goes into detail of what to cover up if you're doing an engine detail, which should give you an idea of what you should be careful around.

I had the same problem with Ultimate Compound. I could actually feel the movement of the pad/polisher change when it got to the point where the little pink balls of product were forming and then it...
Check out this post and Mike's response. It contains some details and links to a video segment on removing RIDS -- random, isolated, deeper scratches. (and btw, "RIDS" is a good word to...
So when you ask what "Polish" to use after the Pinnacle #2 "Fine" swirl remover, are you looking for something to "jewel" the paint (i.e. are you looking for more correction) or are you looking for...
WRX, right? The paint on the handles seems really thin. Mine are worn through just from my hands so keep them waxed well. And please post pics of how your paint turns out.

Mine float sometimes until I tap them against the bottom of the bucket and knock the bubbles off. I doubt changing buckets will help unless you find one where you're wedging the guard against the...
Just adding some comments since I did a side-by-side comparison of these two products as my first hobbyist experiment using my DA buffer. This was my first use of the DA, but for me I saw...
Here's a way out-of-the box idea on the "providing a differentiating service" topic... Do you think these high end auto geeks would like time lapse video of their vehicles getting made over (maybe...
Just throwing it out there (I have next to zero experience with the stuff even though I'm happy with how it came out on my car)... Mike Phillips just recently posted that on rare occasions he has...
Thanks for the suggestions guys. I was also thinking of figuring out a way to get some velcro onto some gloves and using a circular section as a waxing pad that can't be dropped. :)
I stored this Meguiars pad improperly (it was a little damp and had some weight on one section of the pad). The next time I looked at it this section was disintegrated.
I've been looking around the internet to get knowledge about paint correction and detailing. Stumbled across some videos and other information by Mike and here I am. I'm pretty much...
