I just used your #105 and #205 and #26 combination for the first time with d/a machine on a Black 02 Infinity G20. The results were great. I did the job in the sun the Compound was hard to remove with micro fiber so I used some Last Touch to assist. If I must do work in the sun is there either a better way or different product that will come off easier? The vehicles we usually do are outside in the summer what can I do to make it go faster? I used a Griots 6" with CCS Yellow cutting pads first step, CCS white polishing and CCS black Finishing pads. I think I'm going to buy the Meguiar's DA with Micro-fiber pads to make the jobs go faster.



For express details I'm thinking to either use the:



1)HD Uno, or AutoScrub fine with NaNo Shine one step, as a clay type process with Sealantas an upgrade.



2) or just spray wax like Last Touch or should I use Xpress Wax



3) or your Finishing Wax with Micro fiber pads



What do you recommend.



What are your thoughts on the sponge clay pads i.e. wonder sponge, speedy towels or Auto Scrub med with glide in place of clay, or Auto Scrub Lt with a wax or sealant as an upgrade?



Also, I'm doing the Mel Craig style Eco Wash Waterless low pressure with a Mytee Boss as a wash, which product do you have as a concentrate for use in this machine Ive used Eco Wash from Detail King, I see Chemical Guys has a few they promote with their enhanced pod. I think I'd rather try and use Meguires for everything what is your product Rinse Free, and how does it compare the DK Eco which is around $30 per gallon concentrate and dilutes down to around 64 gallons 2 oz per gallon? The reviews on Optimum No Rinse looks very solid also.



I need a compressor for mobile detailing which do you recomend I was looking at 5 gallon Wen $165 and or is a 2.6 gallon Makita big enough Makita $225, Also what do you think of the Tornador?





Thanks for all your help!

rberger- Welcome to Autopia!



I can only address a few of your Qs as I haven't used most of what you're asking about.



I can't imagine that switching from the GG 6" RO polisher to the Meguiar's one would be money well-spent. The Griot's is fine and any performance diffs would be awfully minor. The Meguiar's MF disks work great with the GG polisher, plenty aggressive for me and I'm using this combo a) instead of my rotaries, and b) on hard clear.



I'm not a fan of working in the sun for numerous reasons, but if you have to do that you might find other products easier to use than M105.



I use M34 Final Inspection to help buff off M105 residue as it's a very "clean" QD that doesn't leave much of anything behind.



When buying an air compressor, I'd get the best one you can possibly afford, both with respect to output and durability.
