Can I get some suggestions on how to use Menzerna's P203s using a rotary? I'm using it for the first time on a Lexus with some RIDS and it doesn't seem to be correcting very much (although it's difficult to see on a silver car).



I'm using a LC CCS Green pad, spreading at 600 RPM for a couple of "passes", then to 1500 until the polish breaks down, then 900-1200 for a little while to finish up. The finish looks fine, but it doesn't look like it cuts very much. Any advice? Thanks.
 
well from what ive heard and experienced most lexus paint is soft to medium, so add a bit of pressure, you wont hurt anything, just keep it moving
 
I've achieved great correction results on Lexus paint with my Makita, white pad, and PO203S. I usually spread it in about 900, then bump it up to 1500-1800 at medium pressure until it breaks down, then back down to 900. Use just 4 small dots of polish per working section.



For deeper RIDS you may need to step up to SIP, or you can throw on a PFW or Micro Surface Tuff Buff wool pad and 203. That should clean up deeper defects quickly, then you can go back and hit it again with white/203 to clean up any halos induced by the wool.



I've done some very nice one-step corrections on harder Benz and BMW's, so you should be fine with the Lexus.



Here's some more info on PO203S
