just purchased PC7336 from local Lowes ($109 plus 10% off + tax). :xyxthumbs



but I haven't purchased any polish products.

I want to try either Megs #82 Swirl Free or DACP.

I'm getting 32oz bottle but should I try Swirl Free first and if it doesn'twork get DACP & try or just start with DACP and then Swirl Free? dont think I need 1 gallon.



also I'll probably try hand polish (is it #81 or #7?, the one apply btwn SEC and S100).
 
Well where in NJ are you? I'll be in and out of the Old Bridge area most of summer.



Its good to have a selection of polishing products on hand. I assume you purchased the CMA pad kit (DM-KIT I believe.) So which polish would you get would depend upon the finish.



DACP is a pretty strong compound, its a medium cut compound. Fairly aggresive stuff, but with a PC its not that strong. Might leave a fine haze that a follow up with #82 and a finer foam pad.



I think #81 is Meguiar's hand polish. I'm not to familar with it Scottwax has a better knowledge of Meguiar's Body Shop products so may he can and another forum member can comment. The Meguiar's #7 is a glaze though almost along the same lines as SEC. I personally like the finish left behing by SEC and add numerous coats of S100.

I'm in Northern Jersey or sometimes around New Brunswick area.

Do you know any place I can get Meg's Body Shop product around here?

Since I have swirl everywhere, I'll get DACP and #82.

I just turn on PC, it's so loud. is this normal?
 
kpounds, thanks for the link. they have somewhat cheaper price than other sites I have looked. But I have to pay $10shipping so I'm looking for the local store.
 
MildSeven, I recently asked claymagic where they have distributors around my area, north jersey, and they told me to go to this place:



Auto Care Products of Northern NJ LLC

1121 Edgewater Avenue, Unit 19

Ridgefield, NJ 07657

201-840-1428



They probably have the meguiar's there. I haven't called or gone there yet, but tell me how they are if you choose to go.
 
:( sorry... but go to meguiar's site, click "dealer locator", put in your zip code, check "Meguiar's Professional Products" and search. That should get you what you need. Good luck!
 
Free shipping on all orders $74.99 I believe now. Larry is the owner of that company. Very knowledgable if not a little old school. Has a nice new webpage layout and accepts credit cards now. Meguiar's, 3M, Blitz, Sonax, P21S, Wurth, Zymol, Lexol, and Detailer's Choice are some of the product lines I think he carries. the in-stock inventory counter is also cool.



Last time I heard, I think he was opening a shop somewhere in N. Jersey.

good place to visit. just talk to him on the phone, he only carry 1 gallon. he doesn't carry 32oz. 1 gallon polish is lil too much for me.
 
I ordered #83 from local paint shop ($19.xx for 32oz). bit expensive than online price but it was ok to me.



I worked with pc7336 (with CMA Yellow pad) today, wow less swirl now. I love DACP!. I needed to turn to speed 5 otherwise it's hard to buff.

How often should I use #83? once/year?

I have CMA white pads but what do you guys use this pad for? Since I'm planning to go #83-SEC(by hand)-S100(by hand) route, I'm curious when I should use the white pads.
