  1. Thanks

    I would watch the videos and buy this Pad bundle that way you have it covered.
    Also remember when you start to polish do a 2x2 test spot so you will know what it is going to take to make your paint perfect.

    As far as I know, yes. Others on here have done so without issue. If you want to be sure, test in a small, inconspicuous spot first. But really, I think you'll be fine.

    Yep, you certainly can. Be sure to put on s0me sunglasses first, though. It may blind you.  ? It's also awesome for the inside of the windshield to help remove/prevent the incessant haze.

    Good info from @shane@detailedreflections (as usual!). I'll also add yes, the orange microfiber pad was discontinued and replaced with the blue microfiber pad. 
     
    Also, to help fill some small imperfections, at least temporarily, and add some amazing shine, add BG to your routine.  You're gonna love it.

    Don’t underestimate the power of a foam pad. They will cut. That looks superficial. Correcting polish and an orange pad followed by finishing polish and a white pad and I think you’d be satisfied. 
     
    We all want that 100% perfect finish. It’s very elusive, even for those of us who do this often. You can drive yourself crazy trying to find it at best, and at worst you can trash a paint job. A good rule of thumb is how it looks from three feet away. 
     
    Even the majority of clients won’t pay for thay perfect finish. It’s expensive and we only do that by the hour since they can add up. Ever see those “forty hour details?” Most of that time is spent polishing. 
     
    If you have the patience, chase it. But invest in the tools to protect yourself from costly mistakes. We typically don’t touch cars until we’ve put a paint gauge to them for regular polishing...and we wouldn’t chase perfection without doing it. 
     
    Youll be amazed at what two steps of polishing gets you. Take your time. Do it right.
