Ditch the Makita and use a DA polisher with 5.5 pads and 4" pads as you will have better results(Providing you have a DA polisher).

Me neither. Todd feels quite confident that GM was using this secret technology a few years back. Him and I actually went back in forth on Autopia about this, but to this day he still feels confident that his info is accurate. (even though I provided multiple sources of documentation to show him otherwise)

Hello/
Well,I tried my Synthetic Compound w/my Makita/9227 w/4" Light CuttingOrange Pad at approx. #3 Setting [1500/RPM`s].Of course,this attempt was on the Flat Surfaces only.I really like doing the Detail Thing,but it makes me sad as I really do not have alot of experience on something like this...I tried the Scratch Doctor,by hand,and it also did not work/..The Clearcoat Finish on All The Alloys *is not* Yellowed/Really Dull/Peeling/Chipped/Etc.The scratches are not deep,they`re surface type.I did not want to increase the Buffer Speed,as I felt #3 should`ve been more than enough to remove those scratches.Anyone else want to give any advice? Maybe I should let someone else do them......Thanx for Your Time to Read.

Some of the clear coat on the wheels can be really quite hard and require a lot of polishing to remove the easy stuff. Keep your speed low and be patient and you should be able to get the majority of them.

I have never taken mil gauge readings on wheels, for some reason it never occurred to me. Anybody have any idea what the average thickness is?
