Just finished putting on PO106FF. What to layer it next? Wax? I don't have sealant :( Here is what I have, want to make sure it's right: - Klasse AIO, FPII and JW Prime (similar to PO106FF, so probably not I would assume :)) - Menzerna Final Touch Glaze - Menzerna FMJ - JW AJ Trigger...

PC or by hand? If PC, a finishing pad is all I need?

I am trying to determine which one to buy. Are they the same? Basically a paint cleaner. Not really a polish. Use either one AFTER a Polish correct?

What's everyone's take here? Polish -> Seal or Polish -> Wax? OR Both?

Do you get one or the other or both? If both, then do you use one instead of the other or layer them? If layering which first?

I have heard how great this product is. I presume it can polish out fine to medium scratches or is it a AIO type product? Also, the description about the product says two things: 1) It's made for NEW paint. Supposedly, it's used by Mercedes in the plant on new finishes. So does that...

I am new to PC detailing and tried it out this past weekend. While I had pretty good results, I was not 100% sure what I should be doing with the PC. I am using the 7336 with Propel 6.5" flat pads. When spreading compound on the paint surface or running the PC faster to polish, should I be...

Does it mean: 1) Remove defects with an abrasive polish, if necessary 2) Add sealant (?) 3) Add Wax (?) I keep reading about layering many coats of stuff, but don't really know what should go on first, second, third, etc. Not sure what products are good "bonds" to one another. Perhaps...

PC with 3M creates a white powder ALL over the place. I have to constantly microfiber the dust off the paint. Very annoying. Is this normal with 3M compounds? Or is it normal with almost all polishes? How do I reduce or eliminate the dusting, if it's actually called that?

I clayed my first car today. It worked really well. Unfortunately, I ran out of daylight so I didn't get into the detailing with the PC that I wanted. However, I wanted to protect the paint as much as possible until when I have time to work on it again. So after washing, claying, I put on...

Detailed my first vehicle today. It was a very old black car. Lots of scratches, rock chips, and swirl marks. I was only detailing it as practice with PC. I used: - Optiumum Clay with Meg QD as a lubricant - Orange Propel Flat Pad - Yellow Propel Flat Pad - 3M Finesse It II Fine...

I have a bar by Optimum called Opti-clay. It's pretty good. I use it with Megs QD. A few questions: 1) I keep kneading the bar when I clay. I suppose it "rejuvenates" the clay to a clean section. But how long can I expect to use the same clay bar? When will I know it's time to replace...

I see reference to this often. What do I use to mist the pads? Water? Or is there a special solution?

Any suggestions on what product to use? I've tried bug and tar remover and it doesn't work for the more stubborn ones. Is there something that is clearbra safe and works well?

Just wondering what everyone uses to clean the rubber seals around the windows and all weather rubber mats.

Any suggestions what is best brand to get and from where? I need MF for waxing, buffing and waffle towels for drying. I would like to go somewhere locally and grab a few.

I have 3M film on the front of my black car. I was wondering if anyone else has this protection and how to use a PC on it. I don't want to ruin the film by running too fast or even the wrong type of product which may destroy it. I did read that the film can be washed and waxed like normal...

I can get Quick and Easy locally. But ONR is pretty popular here. Any ever use Q&E? Is it the same type of product? Does it work as well as ONR with the same processes? Or should I just invest in some ONR?

This may be a really stupid question, but if I wanted to try a few different products and don't have more than one of any colored pads, should I or do I need to wash throroughly it and let dry before putting on a different product? I know I have to buy more pads, but I wanted to try a few...

I have a PC and don't know which pads to get. There are so many different kinds and sizes. Can someone clarify which I should order? - CCS Smart Pads 6.5" or 7.5" or 8.5" curved or Dual Action - The Edge 2000 6" or 8" dual action durafoam - The Edge 2000 Wave - Dual Action or regular...
