Be sure to prime the applicator with detail spray prior to starting each new panel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Team Adam's Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Before anyone else asks: The question has been posed to me that you should never work in circles, but in straight lines. This is true when working with an abrasive product or on a less than spotless panel (i.e.- if polishing with SHR by hand or when dusting with DS work in straight lines) When using a product like Revive which has no abrasives and would only be used on freshly washed paint its best to work in circles. The product has trace amounts of fillers and is a CLEANING polish, it has ZERO abrasiveness. To properly work the product into the surface and get maximum benefit from it you're best to work in circles. NOW... if you're using the new blue foam applicators which DO have some mild abrasiveness I would recommend going back to straight lines. If using a microfiber applicator stick with circular motion b/c you essentially have 'no cut' to the application. Hope that makes sense.

0 scott mc Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 good answer Dylan! I was wondering that myself? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 espop125 Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 Thanks guys I did end up doing it in cirlcular motion because thats when it seemed to cover the best and I am using a microfiber applicator. Just wanted to make sure because the bottle said staight but it was not doing a good job it straight. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Toms94 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Is Revive only applied by hand, or can it be applied with the PC? And if a PC is acceptable, how would you apply it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 GerryC Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I use Revive both by hand and with the PC. When using with the PC I use about 4 pea-sized drops, very little (if any) pressure on setting of 4-5. I also don't move as slow as when I use SHR because you aren't doing any correcting. It works great on clearcoated wheels too, especially on the 4" pads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 11chevz71 Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 what color pad do you use with the revive? I belive alot of people like to use the white pad when using revive. Because you are not trying to kill swirls anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
