    FS: Used Porter Cable and a Few Pads

    Hi, I'm upgrading, so I have a used PC for sale. It's been used a bit for a couple of years. Appearance wise, it's in good condition and works just as great as the day I bought it. Hook and loop backing plate, handle are included. I also have a few used pads with it. Lightly used, still...

    Question on M105/205

    Thinking about some things...VW paint is fairly hard. 205 on a white pad does a nice job of bringing up gloss, but doesnt cut much. In an effort to go with a "least aggressive first" approach, would it be wise to try 205 on an orange pad? Think that would require follow up with a white/205...

    I'll get flamed for this but...

    I used Nu Finish yesterday...lol Before you jump on me, let me tell the story :) It's getting cold quickly here in Chicago. I realized I was out of Collinite, which is my usual winter wax. I had my old standby, Meg's 20, but it's not the best protection during the winter. I had the day...

    Question on UNO with LC Pads...

    2011 VW Jetta...hard paint. Just some light wash marring. Think a white pad and UNO is enough, or step to an orange? If I step to the orange, any thoughts on it finishing out well enough, or will it need a follow up with white? Thanks!

    Must Have 3D Items?

    Thinking of taking advantage of the 20% off sale. Dont want to spend a ton, but thinking about Uno, Poxy, and Final touch. Any others I must have? Which 3D dressing is everyone using for tires? I'm using AA now, but kind of in search of something else. Thanks for the input!

    Some Questions on HD Uno

    I am very intrigued by this product. I have a plethora of LC pads, so I am wondering if a white pad would be a good general, light polish pad to use with Uno? Uno looks like a REAL winner. Combined with Nitro Seal it should be an amazing combo!

    FK1000p Prep Questions

    Thinking of trying this on my daily driver. I've read a lot that FK 215 is a good prep. My question is, how long do you have to wait after 215 before applying 1000p? Also, would AG SRP be a suitable sub, or even something like MEg's color-X? Thanks for the input.

    Polish...help me decide

    I've got 2009 Jetta in Platinum Grey. Daily driver and just some basic wash induced marring, a few RIDS, nothing major. I'm looking at either HD Uno or the new optimum spray polishes. Going to be used with a PC. Suggestions on product/pad? I appreciate the help. Brett

    Is Collinite 476 THAT hard to use?

    I've read conflicting stories, but am still attracted to 476 because it seems like it might be a bit more durable than 845. Is it really hard to use? Any tips on application/removal technique? Thanks.

    Which Collinite do you/would you use?

    I am almost out of 845. Thinking about maybe trying 476 or 915. However, I find 845 easy to use, look is pretty good (a little bright), and it lasts. Do either of the others stack up to, or are they better? Biggest concern is durability and ease of use. Car is a medium grey, FYI.

    Using smaller backing plate on new Griot's DA?

    Can it be done? I am assuming by the look of the machine, yes. I just prefer smaller pads than a 6 or 6.5 inch. Thanks.

    Topping IW845 with M26?

    Love the IW protection but want a bit more depth. Applied IW about 3 weeks ago, would there be any harm in adding some M26? I want the protection of IW, but the end look of M26. Thanks!

    Interesting Vroom Wash Mitt I saw today...

    I was in Target today looking at the auto section, and was suprised to find one of the stores near my house had a great selection of new products. Nice towels, different than some of the run of the mill stuff they had for so long. Didn't buy anything, but I'll be back! :) Anyway, they had...

    Best Cleaning QD

    My car gets some very light sap spots from time to time at work. Looking for an OTC, good CLEANING QD. I also have some DP rinseless wash which I could dilute down, but looking for opinions on the best cleaning QD. LSP is IW845, so not concerned if the qd is a little tough on the lsp. thanks.

    Meg's UQW on Interior?

    Anyone ever thought of this? I LOVE the stuff, and when I think about it, it works great on all trim, so why not try it on the dash? Might get flamed, but it just came to mind...hey, it's late! :) Thoughts?
