OK, I detailed another 3/4 ton, 4 door, 4X4, truck -and black too, lets make it easy. It was a 06 Dodge with the Cummins, cool truck and very well taken care of inside. But, after the wash and clay, I was faced with about an acre of black paint with the waterspots from hell. I thought, hey, M101 with MF should do, I tried various combo`s with M101-105-D300 and MF and orange foam. M101 with orange foam "worked" if you did at least 2 full steps, maybe 3. Hey, I`m not that young anymore and with temps in the 90`s, I needed help. So, I brought out the 3D Eraser waterspot remover, I remember somebody saying it really worked. No kidding, oh heck yeah it did. I found that if you applied it thick, and worked it in with a MF towel for 2-3 minutes, then let it sit up while you unbent your old fingers and got some gatoraid, it worked great. I never let it dry on the paint, and I washed it off with soap and then rinsed, dried and what do you know, 1 step with M101 on orange and it was LSP ready! Dust? You bet, but, it wasn`t slowing me down, I went over it with the Duragloss no rinse stuff and dried it, then hit it with a nice layer of BFWD, worked it in good with a LC red pad, the paint seemed to suck it up. Anyway, wipe off was easy and the customer said and I quote - this didn`t look this good the day I bought it, and he gave me a nice tip!
So boys and girls, if you don`t have 3D Eraser, I hope you NEVER have a job with waterspots. Me? I`m ordering more and asking Ben to make this in the quart size too.
One thing that keeps bothering me though (in my best Lt. Columbo) is - could Eraser be used with MF pads on a PC? As long as you kept the speed around 2-3? and kept the surface wet, why or why not?
