First off I wanna say that I hate you all, I thought I was the most anal person when it comes to detailing , and now I realize I was doing alot of this incorrectly! So after lurking for a few weeks and reading everything I could I went ona mission tester day and picked up the following:
PC 7336
vecro backing plate
3 8006 megs pads
2 9006 megs pads
clay bar
nxt car wash
3m perfect it fine cut
3m perfect it SMR
megs #9
Megs # 7
NXT tech wax
Megs Quick detailer
and microfiber towels
ok that being said after 2 days of test on the wifes honda (black purplish mica)
I found these steps to work , what do you guys think
1 wash
2 clay
3 wash
4 pc with 3m fine cut @ spped 5 with 8006 pad slow arm movements and some pressure
5 pc with 3m SMR @speed 4-5 with 8006 pad , slow arm movements and light presure till material dissappeared
6 pc with megs #7 with speed 3-4 with 9006 faste arm motions
7 pc with tech wax x2 withh speed at 3-4 w/9006 pad and faster motions covering serface 2xs
8 check car for wax smudges and buffed with megs Quick Detailer
ok so now for the questions!!!!HELP PLEASE
Do I need other products?Are mine compareable to say :
3m Fine cut= Megs #80
3m SMR= Megs# 83
are these products compareable or way different?
I am like everyone else wanna get rid of swirls light scrathes and have deep paint!
I can get ALL the 3m and Megs products locally which I prefer!
The reason I am asking is these megs products seem to be widley used here on Autopia, and you guys are the Pro`s
I have to say i wasnt to pleased with the PC at first beacause I was so paraniod about burning throught the paint that i wasnt getting the swirls out I was getting frustrated, but then I read some more here and applied some pressure and raised the speed and didnt move so fast and VIOLA the swirls started to come out with the fine cut.
Theis all started because my new F-250 came off the lot with etched water spots and swirls and I want to get them out without screwing up my 50k truck, And I dont want some deteail kid armed with a rotary killing my paint. so here I am!!!
SO about the hating thing, I was only kidding I want to say THANK YOU ALL!!!!
I FOUND MY PEOPLE!!!!!
I hate when people dont take car of there cars, it frigg`n kills me!
