    Older Honda Accord using GG9

    After finding Autogeek and learning, used Blackfire Si02 after claying on my wife’s BMW and my Toyota Avalon company car, by hand. My son inherited the older Honda from his wife’s Grandmother. Well taken care of, low miles, lots of swirls and scratches.

    Really wanted to try an Orbital Polisher, so purchased a G9.

    Started the process with Blackfire Iron Remover, followed by GG Surface Prep Pad an GG Speed Shine Detailer.

    Orange Lake County pads with 5” backing plate and Blackfire One Step; finished with LC Black finishing pad and Blackfire Hybrid Liquid.

    Tires with DP Wheel Glaze. Windshield and windows with McKees Glass Restorer and Glass Coating.

    Am happy with results (sorry, no “before” pictures.)

    Enjoyed learning on Autogeek and also the new experience of a a Polisher. Thanks for all the education, insight and tips!

    Wow, that looks great.

    Really nice story, and sounds like you did a little homework that worked to your advantage.
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

    Thanks to all for your replies.

    The G9 seems a powerful tool, easy to use and should fit my needs. The Blackfire One Step did a good job with the swirls and scratches and wiped off easily. One area on the roof had very deep scratches and could not go deep enough, but it helped that area and is barely noticeable..

    Plan to do my personal cars and my son's cars (fortunately both live close and appreciate a "detailed" car)!

    Will most likely use this combination as have product to use. When I retire (am 68) hope to use these skills to perhaps try a Ceramic coating on whatever vehicle I may get.

    Am sure that the offerings will continue to change and get better.

    That car looks great now and it is showing a bit of love!

    Super pick of products and tools! That Blackfire One Step is a perfect base and then any wax or sealant just keeps the car in top shape.

    Love that very unique color on a Honda, looks new again.

    Keep up the great work, you'll be busy it seems.
