SWISSVAX PRODUCTS!!!!!!!!!!! the lexus guys use that.......im currently using Samurai. expensive though.........if you want some over-the-counter cheap products stick with Meg products........i only used Turtle wax for the car wash soap and rubbing compound. AND NO ON THE CHAMz USE MICRO-FIBER!!!! and wash them right after use. i say 3 weeks tops on each m/f towel then get a new one. then you can use the old ones for interior wiping and rim cleaning. CLICK HERE FOR SWISSVAX CLAY BAR MICRO-FIBER damn!!!! that swissvax is extremely expensive!! do you really use those products? any of this helping? i havent try anything, i am REALLY busy all week, i will probably try on monday night or tuesday, if any other member has tryed anything please post their results... Let me point you guys to a place that really helps out the Vette community: www.autogeek.net I personally use a Porter Cable 7424 random orbital machine with a white pad for light marks/spots, or orange pad for deeper ones. My polish of choice is Menzerna Intensive and Menzerna Final Polishes. That website I posted above has a really good video tutorial of the Porter Cable and proper usage. Having no experience with it, I did my first panel on the nose of my vette and was AMAZED when I completely took out a bird poo etching. The PC7424 can be had for around $100, but the kits they sell with pads and such for $175ish are WELL worth it. As for the water spots, the Vinegar wipe is actually a really good trick, and it quite safe. If they don't come out from that, you can probably hide them with a wax, but they'll still show up as the wax wears off. If you want to remove it, break out the buffer and polishing compounds. iam really looking into that,, thanks man, that video should be a sticky here in the forums i just finished watching it and wow, it really explains you detail by detail! definitely will have to get one of those! thanks a lot man -------------------- ![]() |
