    Final Count Down...and what to count

    I am going to be ordering my Griots' 6" in a few hours.

    I will be getting 10 Über foam pads. I will be driving very little but want to clean up a 'new' 2012 Red Camry "The Baron" and make it shine. And the same for a friend's small Toyota Matrix.

    After the Spit and Polish, I will just maintain it. It will be outside in Houston weather all year...lots of HOT and a good deal of Wet.

    I have the chemicals... Thinking of getting 3 Yellow (cut)
    5 Green (polish) and 2 Black (sealant/wax)

    What's your thoughts?

    Thanks

    Bergy

    How much you're willing to spend? I'm sure the devil 'in your ear' saying 'Call Nick at AG and ask him for a killer Flex 3401 deal'!

    Nothing against the GG!, but I've seen occasions here where the 'buyer' ordered so many accessories and other 'cool stuffs' it would worth getting a better Polisher instead, IMO for sure.

    Not saying it's your case, but always good to be aware of.

    Good luck

    Kind Regards.

    That's a pretty good selection. The green CCS pad is capable of good defect removal with something like Ultimate Compound. The yellow is pretty agressive. The orange would be a versatile compromise of good cutting power, and less residual pad damage. The black pad is what I like for cleaner waxes. For pure sealants/waxes I like the red.
