    EO NanoWax over FMJ?

    I needed some opinions on this… I have 2 layers of FMJ on my car after this weekend’s detail. I plan to go one more as I feel this is when FMJ reaches its peak. After that I was thinking about topping it the Eagle one NanoWax. It creates a very dark and wet look and I like the...

    No hose brainstorm...Opinions?

    Due to my recent poor experience with QEW I’ve brainstormed a new “hose-less� washing technique. I feel more comfortable and with more water and since I don’t have a hose and I don’t like constantly polishing to repair the damage from my lack of abilty to work...

    Meg's finishing pad (gray,white)

    one last one. It allways appeared to me that my finishing pad seemed to "eat up" a lot of my #26 when i applied it. So much so i pretty much stopped using it and just put i on my hand. This time around i'm switching to FMJ and (because of the price) don't want it to be sucked inot the pad...

    #80 + LC orange pad

    i have some swirls that won't go away with # 80 and a Meg's yellow pad. I've recently ordered am orange power pad from PAC. Do you think it would be better at swirl removal with the #80 or should i step up to #83? Also what speeds (PC) are recomended?

    3m SMR then FMJ?

    I really like 3M SMR and i just recently got some FMJ. Is it ok to follow the SMR with FMJ? Will it bond properly or should i do a 50/50 wipe first?
