Hi there I'm a loooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnng time lurker here just trying to soak up everything I can. I finally got the PC, SFX pads, AIO and SG, P21s, and some polishes and have been practicing for a little while. My wife's car is a 93' Civic so it doesn't matter if I screw it up. First off I can't believe how much a difference a PC makes, it's truly unreal. I wish I could have all the time I've spent polishing by hand for substandard results. So here's the question, what speed should I use for applying the polishes, glazes, and waxes? My process is fairly predictable:



step1: Wash, clay, and wash again.



step 2: Sonus yellow pad and AIO.



step3: MF bonnet and SG.



step 4: Sonus blue pad and P21s.



What speed settings should I use for applying these products and am I doing anything wrong? Thanks.
 
I would save yourself a lot of headache and put that KSG on by hand. KSG needs to be super, super thin - to the point where your scratching your head swearing up and down that its not on your paint. its too easy to overload your pad/bonnet, even if you qd it first



just my .02
 
Wow, I'm suprised you use such a high speed. I kind of thought that using such high rpms would dry out the polishes too fast but I'll give it a go. Thanks. And fdizzle the bonnets I have came with the SFX kit and the directions stated they were especially good at applying Klasse so I used what they gave me. I have read countless threads about the necessity of applying SG thin and it seems to work well. Do you think my results would be better if I applied the SG by hand?
