    #16 following NXT??

    I have read several posts with people having good results using two or so coats of nxt tech wax followed by #16. To me, this sounds like the best of both worlds having a synthetic wax and then coating with a carnuba "ultimate protection". My question is after you coat with #16 can you...

    Is #80 alot more agressive then #82

    Recently, I purchased Dacp, #80, #7, #16. I planned on applying them in the same order listed above. My question is should I be using #82 vs. #80 after Dacp? I just realized #80 is more aggressive then #82 and possibly close to the level of #83. This might be a good question for you Mike. TIA

    paging Mike Philips

    Today I ordered a gallon of Dacp from meguiars and was told to only follow it up with nxt. They said following up with #82 or #80 wasnt really necessary.

    I was hoping that statement would attract your attention. In my search for buying my PC and pads I have learned quite a few things which brings up several questions. Why is the PC typically paired up with a 6 " backing plate? It is well known the counterweight needed to avoid vibrations must...
