Like what products used in what step and what pad.

Assume ur using a rotary so i would need speed settings for each.

Also which product to use on light cars and which on dark

Thanks

This is great but add clay to the start right after washing.

I would have to agree with patrick on all of the above, but I wouldnt push 2000 with the ssr2.5 . The PwC wouldnt really need all of the 1250 rpm becuase it doesnt really have much cut, if any. Other than that it looks good.

thanks for all the replies. i ended up giving detailing another go, but my shoulder just hurt too much after an hour.

so i traded my rotary, plus some cash, on autopia for a PC. And well lets say i just finished my first detail since my injury and it looks amazing. I do miss the rotary for some "trouble" spots, but for the clients i have/had a PC is MORE than enough.

So now does anything change? And whats the natty`s? are there two types for different colors?

There is the original Natty`s (which I have which is clear) and there is Natty`s Blue. The blue is supposed to have better looks on darker color cars; ie looks more `wet`. You really can`t go wrong with any PB products.

ya keep the sped 4-5 1/2 6 if you really really need it.. and I would just get natty`s blue... It`s sweet.. but i have both,.
