    You really need to try Meg`s D-151. It has amazing cut with really good protection. The thing is, I believe the protection (carnauba I think) that is in 151 really help the non diminishing abrasives "rouge" the finish. I use it as a finishing out step after 105/205 a lot now. Alone, it protects for 5-6 weeks. I now top it off with Meg`s Ultimate Quik Wax and the durability is 8+ weeks. The look is amazingly deep too. I`m also testing out Meg`s over the counter "Ultimate Compound". It`s in between 105 and 205 in cut and easier to remove than 105 but its finishing out nicer than 205! Not bad for a product that`s 7.00 a bottle.

    Paper update...

    So much for the daily update!

    There has been progress on the paper. It seems to be stalled, but is not. I have been working on a new section, and it is a very difficult topic to write about. Perhaps it is not hard to understand, but it sure is tough to keep things simple when discussing it!

    Right now, this new section will add possibly three to four more pages of text. As of right now, pages 13, 14, 15, and 16 are works in progress.

    To note- all of these additions pertain to the use of the random orbital machine. There has been no new information added that relates to buffing liquids. Although buffing liquids, pads, and paint types are constantly changing, the machines we use are not changing all that much. The basic movements created by today`s polishing machines are the same as they were over 50 years ago (orbital, rotary, or a combination of the two).

    If I am doing my job well, this paper will give the reader a very complete understanding of how to wring the most out of the random orbital. It is a relatively simple machine, but how it is affected by outside factors is seemingly endless! I am trying to address all issues related to its use. ut:

    I just got a Flex. Do you still use the same amount of downforce with the flex as the PC?
