Kingsford Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 A going through recent and old videos before my Flex gets here, I found that people go about removing and applying polishes differently.... Some apply all 2 or 3 polishes one on top of the other while others apply the single coat and remove it and then apply the next product? So what do you use? Why do you do it? What are the pluses and down falls between the 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Comes down to what I'm doing... If I'm trying to define a process or monitor progress on a difficult panel I apply and remove one product at a time. If I'm going for speed or already have an idea of what its going to take to get the desired result I go with the polishes over the top of eachother.

Sundog Detailing Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I remove after each step to check my progress! I'm the same. I also feel removing The layer I just worked helps keep the pad from clogging up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome_SS Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Single layer method. It seems to me that you would be mixing product together(SHR+FMP); however, it is probably an insignificant amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug123 Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 One layer at a time - wipe down to see how much correction occurred, as the swirl density and character varies - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyGo Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Like some have already replied, I do both, depending on the circumstances. Voted - single - for the same reason stated previously; to check my progress. This mostly applies to the more aggressive stuff though like the yellow to orange transition of SHR (now the green [sSR] to orange [sHR] as well). But to go from orange (SHR) to white (FMP) I'd typically layer over the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxxer Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I like to get stunned each time I wipe the polish, single layer that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingsford Posted November 21, 2010 Author Share Posted November 21, 2010 Single polish,then wipe,check work,next step (or same step if need be). That pretty much sums up what I do. I just dont want to waste product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question
Kingsford
A going through recent and old videos before my Flex gets here, I found that people go about removing and applying polishes differently....
Some apply all 2 or 3 polishes one on top of the other while others apply the single coat and remove it and then apply the next product?
So what do you use? Why do you do it? What are the pluses and down falls between the 2?
