wow that looks terrible...



Instead of criticizing and demoralizing the guy, why don't you take a moment to explain how the job could be improved? No need for the negative comment without a positive solution. Does the job look great? Of course not. But we all had to learn somewhere and this guy is obviously inexperienced and needs a little guidance. But no matter how poor the job, there was no need for that comment. :nono
 
And I do beleive there's a question there as what to use after his polish. Just from what I've seen I would say the next step after your wool polish is to switch up to a foam pad and polish. Once I hit the foam I usually take a few stages and finish up with 3M's Ultrafina SE. Since it's fresh bodywork I would use a hand glaze since it can't be waxed yet. Great start lots of effort just needs some finishing work.



(man I just love the eliteist on these boards sometimes......)
 
If the OP can tell us what products he used and what other products he has on hand, that would be helpful in formulating a process.



If he can get his hands on something like menzerna SIP, that would be a great middle polish to use w/ foam after the wool. It may take a few times going over the car with SIP/foam. Then follow with ultrafina polish and the blue 3M foam pad.



For perfection you need to finish up each polish step to its fullest potential.



(BTW I just love all the keyboard detailers and haters.)

I'm sorry that you did not read the thread Shuskan. The OP is NOT the detailer in question. He clearly states that there is no discription and that the thread is taken from another forum.



If I saw a video of a child spitting on his mother, I would comment that was terrible. Would you critisize me for my opinon on this as well and blast me for not offering advice on hooking a luggie?



I believe this is a case of you looking for a fight with out any relevant background. The OP is NOT the person doing the work. If the person posted the work and asked for advice I would have offered as I have 100's of times in the past (search my past posts if you care).



I would appericate if you retract your statements towards me because yours hold no weight in this context.

This post was NOT posted by the OP. Therefore I am able to offer my opinion.



As far as your elitist post, I have FAR more posts helping people then you do. Infact I rarely see you on here offering advice or taking the time to do it correctly.

Wow. This thread went downhill, and picked up some serious speed. :furious:



I didn't know life was based on the number of helping posts one makes. :eek:



I think I'm going to go hang out over at DetailingBliss for a little bit.

I love the threads here, but hate the bicker. :think2
 
Not quite sure the original point of this thread. :nixweiss



If the question is "what polish should be used to follow the compounding step?", I'd suggest using an intermediate polish like Meguiars #80 or Optimum Polish to remove the swirls and hazing and then finish the car with 3M's Ultrafina.

My point is that the "elitist" remark was aimed soley at me (which was offered with out reading the context of the thread).



To me this implied that

A) I am an elitist, which is that I put my self on a pedastil.

B) Because I am on a pedistal, I don't come off of this and only cast judgement.



The majority of my posts (overwhelmingy) are helping people with problems or offering solutions. Nor where did I say my life was based on the number of helping posts one makes. It was a response that the elitist comment that was made was seriously off base as I cannot fit that definition. Not to mention it was made under another false pretense, that the OP is the one who posted the thread.



Also, if the "bicker" is so bad, why would you elect to make a post intended to flame the fire (life based on helping posts comment, which is obviously sarcastic) then tell everybody where you are running off too...

Todd,



Put down the makita. Go be a lawyer. Show the firm you're trying to get hired at, the 100's of posts you've made just like this one, and you'll get hired ANYWHERE in a heartbeat. They're all incredible. :eek:

Maybe we can get this thing back on track.



The question is asked by the poster, what is used after the polish??



I also question this whole thread as I do not see any validity in it, it's not the detailer asking, okay, so is asking? the owner of the car asking or someone else??



What's the point of the thread U-piter???

Look I really don't want to argue and honestly your post is very disrespectful. I didn't think you would answer my question of intent of your post and it is very obvious that your goal now is to "bicker" which you stand so adamently against.



If I offended anybody by posting that the thread that OP linked showed terrible work I am sorry for that. I thought that was the point of why that thread would be linked on to this forum. If it was the OP's post and he was asking for advice I would have gladely helped.

Alright, fair enough. Just to be clear, I was serious about the lawyer thing. Your choice of words is the best on the net.

My guess is English is a second language for the original poster (he is from Israel) and he is having a little difficulty explaining his question. I would say he best option would be to come back and try to ask the question in a different way that will make more sense to us.
