Hi everyone
I decided to give my car a detail yesterday and it was the first time using a orbit polisher ( Makita BO6040 ) and all i can say is WOW , ive had the makita sitting in the garage for about 2 months (un-used) , i suppose i was plucking up the courage to use it
, but since i joined the autopia forums ive learned so much i was confident to use it , i started on a slow speed so i could see how it handled and try and get a technique/rythem , i always kept the pad moving on its own weight as im aware it will heat up the surface quickly, so thats the first thing that was stuck in my mind lol , Im very impressed with the results , there is no doubt ill be using it again as it takes alot off the wrists and get awsome results.
The Car:- BMW 316i Saloon , Boston Green , 17" Style 42 BMW Split Rims, Reiger side skirts, Reiger Front Splitter, Hella Boot Spoiler, B&M F1 Air Filter, ACS/PowerFlow Exhaust. Car has just turned 142,000miles and drives superb.
The products i used were the following:-
Wash- Meg's Gold Class Car
Clay- Meg's Quick Clay
3m Imperial Glaze - used a Farecla G Mop Polishing Pad
Wax- Meg's Cleaner Wax ( Paste )
took 4hrs with interior clean aswell,
Heres the results :-
I cant wait to try more products with the polisher
