    grungy, you are absolutely correct. We have an incredible collection of sharing, Professional Paint Professors (3P) :wizard: here at TID. One of the ideas that came out of our last contest was to have a library where these types of articles could be centrally located, categorized and downloadable. We are working on it currently and as soon as it is complete we will let everyone know.

    Kevin, do you ever have a training seminar?

    Do you have a DVD you sale?

    I honestly suffer from A.D.D. and anything over 1 or 2 paragraphs, I can`t comprehend.My mind becomes bored and starts to drift ut:

    If I can watch something live or on video its much easier.Maybe you could put it on an audio tape and I could jam some ear buds and listen while I sleep Sleep

    This method of yours is 1 of the most intriquing things I`ve run across in quite a while. Thank you for all you contribute to this forum :notworthy:

    I`ve read this 3 times now and will read it again and again and again...

    This is exactly the stuff I love, the actual reason why and how processes work in our business. I love to learn the science of this stuff and this exchange was perfect as to how the mechanics of buffing actually work.

    Thank you guys.
    Thanks jdenon42 thanked for this post

    polishing

    fantastic article there

    I`ve been using a diluteable natural citrus and water based polymer based spray from Driven to Perfection products on it`s own with a rotary and 90 or 100 ppi foam pad and also an orbital for the past couple years with great success

    1. to clean the paint after jewelling/burnishing and add some wetness
    2. as a gloss booster with Driven Marine Sealant Glaze which is amazing on over 30 surfaces, not just paint and an amazing sealant.

    I`m also a believer in going beyond using cutting abrasives on paint.
    Can`t wait until I`m over in USA working with my friend Chris and using Surbuf products with a DA and RO

    Interesting read, just a few questions.

    People have listed products that contain fillers and maskers (they dont fill as such, rather mask the defect by covering it) so which products and pads are the best for this technique which don`t contain fillers or polymer maskers?

    At the moment I use lake gold.

    Barry knows how to get his boys to wash a car but he`s not big on paying his bills, unfortunatly.
    Dude stiffed me. He could do the same to you so be careful with this guy. I`d certainly not leave my car with him.

    I dont really think this is a mature thing to post on here. you need to keep your personal problems between you and the person they are with and not post them all over the web.

    Your post does not offer anything postive to this forum. and I for one dont appreciate you talking about a very respected Detailer and Freind. And from the look of your post count, I would say you just made this acct to log on and whine about this issue. so please take remarks like this to a private message or GTFO.

    I hear voices in my mind and you’re worried that you’re the freak.

    i think your post will go noticed but nobody will hold any value to it so keep it moving.
    i see it as just another hater on the chopping block.
    leave the guy alone. hes doing it big for a reason & i for sure would doubt that he stiffed you or anyone out of money LMAO!

    your like the girlfriend that complains about something but only half a story is told. half a story with no listeners on here at all for your crying.

    where were you trying to go with this? would you like a tissue, i can send a box through the mail. Stop

    you can leave now.
