Hey guys..well it is already turning a bit colder..so im planning one more big detail before winter hits...i have not yet gotten a PC or G100 but i do want to apply a swirl removal product by hand.. (im waiting till next spring to buy a pc)...my question is..what are yall's opinions on light swirl removal...#9, #80, or Poor Boy's SSR? Im wanting to get some ordered tonight or tomorrow so ill hopefully have them by this weekend...thanks guys!

 

just wait till you get a machine...hand just will not produce the finish a machine will. just hand wax it until the machine makes it into your hands...using any of that would be just about a waste of time and products without a machine in my opinion

 

Well....yes and no.

some products work really well by hand...but its hard. If it were me, i would live with it until you get a G100 or PC 7424

 

The one-million and two dollar question...

How much time are you willing to put in to this and are you willing to sacrifice your arms (to absolute soreness) to make this happen?

 

RollingRock Your truck looks like looking into a mirror Nice work I have a G100 I have what i see is spider web on the clear coat Not to bad but i want to get rid of it before winter I have #2 #9 #26 and NXT What would you suggest to take care of the spiderwebs ? Thanks RUSS

 

I'm not RR but, thought I'd toss in a dime...

With those products, the fine cut cleaner (#2) would be the best choice for the light spider webbing. Once you've used that product, go with the #9 for some 'filling' action to remedy the last remaining problems. Follow with NXT X2 with 12-hours of space between coats. Lastly, top with #26.

Clear as mud?

BTW, here's an excellent cheat sheet for using the PC with the aforementioned products...




Enjoy.

was this post for me or RockPick

 

No. Not really. It's more of a 'filler' product than a removal product. While it has a tad of removal properties, it's more of a kaolinite filler.

Much less cut. #80 is a removal product -- #9 is a filler product. While both products certainly have their place within a detailer's aresonal, with what he's described, I'd highly recommend going witht he REMOVAL step. The #2 product (Fine Cut Cleaner) will actually do okay at REMOVING the problems -- it's similar to #80 but not as oily and will break down a tad slower.

RP, sorry I removed my text since we actually double posted. Looked like it wasn't for me.


Cheers

It was for you, RR... I just chimed in before you made it. We didn't really double-post there...

Like I mentioned... I tossed in a dime.

 

I haven't used either #2 or #9, so glad you threw your buck in there.

 

Own em' both... use em' both. I buy #9 by the gallon... the #2 is used MUCH less frequently as I find that #80 is a much easier product to work with...

Thank you RP For the info and the cheat sheet So you think i can stay away from#80 or try it ? Rolling Rock need your input also BTW RP Did you ever get your AMBIENT TEMP SENSOR replaced ? RUSS

 

Russ

I don't have much to say,(shocking i know) RockPick knows a hella-lot more than me. I am still a student of his. Hope I get a passing grade.

Since I am a little predictable...I would get the #80 or some Optimum just so you can play with other products, even Poorboys, but its b/c I haven't used #2 or #9.

 

Thanks RR Iam on vacation next week And iam looking for a few tips before the snow starts Thank you for the info RUSS
