What part did you use the beer on? New windshield process we all don`t know about? Or wait a deoderizer that`s it.

Nice Work!



This proves that tough jobs can be tackled w/ a PC, it just takes more time. I don`t understand the people who say a PC can never match a rotary, even if time isn`t included as a factor.



What does a PC do? remove paint. What does a Rotary do? it also removes paint, just at a much quicker rate.

quickstike thanks for the possitive comments. Your right the PC can do the job, sometimes it just takes a little longer. Having the right polishes helps as well ;) .

nice job, how did you like the ssr 3? also, why didnt you follow up with ssr 1 after the ssr2.5? you didnt notice any haziness from the 2.5?

I really like ssr 3 for it`s abrasiveness but it dusts something terrible. It will remove some pretty deep swirls marks. I think it`s one of the best compounds for the PC. There was not a lot of need to use ssr1 as the surface was close to perfect after ssr 2.5. If I had more time and the customer wanted it as perfect as I could get it I would have used ssr 1.
