Hey guys, i was wondering if you guys could help me with something. Im about to start detailing my car with a pc, and had a few questions about edges. On my car, the roof has indents on the sides, and i was hoping you guys could tell me the best way to go about using a pc around these. Heres a pic of what they look like:

Can i use the pc at speed 5 or 6 on those indents like on the rest of the roof, or should i tape off the edge so i dont burn the paint off? Thanks!

You should have no problems using a PC. Just use common sense and dont leave in one spot, keep the pc moving and you'll be ok.

Yeah, *UNLESS* the pait has somehow been previously thinned in those areas. I'm always saying "the PC is so mild, just don't worry about it" but OTOH I've cut through very thin single stage on edges like that when I didn't consider the vehicle's (unknown) past history.



But to be honest, if it were mine I'd probably go the "don't worry about it" route.
 
Be sure to "tape off" the weather stripping or areas that you don't want to strip polish or wax from after the pc.
