Hi all...a few questions before I attack my car with the PC and a yellow foam pad.....I used 3M SMR with a white foam pad on the car, but I am still not happy with the results. I want to use FI II but I am wondering if it is newbie safe...I was planning on using FI II with a fresh white foam pad...
