Even if I knew something about computers(which of course I do not) I would not be able to put out the graphics in this write up............ Todd this tutorial is TIGHTNESS. You were able to articulate what usually takes years to learn, especially with the firm pressure part in conjunction with 85RD or UF, used 205 today with the PC me likey more cut than 106FA but a nice finish even by itself or onto 85RD.

Excellent write up Todd! :thumbup: I wish I would have had something like this to read a couple of years ago. It would have saved a few brain cells from exploding trying to decipher all the "jeweling" threads on various forums. Thanks and keep up the good work!
Oh, and for the work on the Ferrari :notworthy: :drool5:

I agree 1000x%.
I know of no other forum where you can go to get this kind of info. I also know of no other master detailer that is willing to share such vast knowledge.

Totally awsome illustrations & write-up Todd!! I do have a question that you can most likely answer. What`s your thoughts on the possible gloss differences as well as the final appearance all together when using a PC in comparison to a rotary for the final jewling process? Can one be more beneficial and/or better on perfectly corrected paint?

Outstanding illustrations; they really aid in wrapping one`s mind around what is actually going on at the paint level during the polishing process.
