Pics with PFW and Ghia

[Mobilejay]

I finally bought a PFW pad along with some SIP. I tried it(the pad) out today to see what all the hype was about. Holy crap. I need to by a lot of these things. I have polished my car, well half of it, with OC and LC orange pads x2. (The LC yellow just left too much marring and not enough cutting. ) So I would use the orange pads twice and then go to OP and green pads 1-2 times. It removed the light swirls, and oxidation.



I put the pfw to the test on the quarter panel and it worked great with Black Fire's Compound, removed oxidation, removed swirls, and deeper scratches. I couldn't believe the scratches that it removed, I almost didn't try on the panel I already polished with the heavy scratches cause I thought it was no use.....now I have to repolish the half of the car I already did. There are some DEEP scratches in some places so those did not come out obviously but I am very excited about it. Oh the pad left some marring so I used the OP and green LC x2 to remove but didn't work. I went and got the SIP and white pad and it worked. I could have done it twice but my back was killing me so I had to stop soon. After the sip I used BF GEP and black pad. Sprayed IPA/water and then washed. Topped with Zymol Concours.

I was pretty stoked, not perfect but its a 40 year old car, repaint is probably 20 so its pretty good.

Very nice work !

I'll definitely buy some PFW pads with SIP.

Very excited to start practicing, but i'll need to wait after winter =(



Keep up the good work!

It looks great for a 40 y/o car !

you'll love it. sometimes I think the PFW doesn't have enough cut still for the work I've seen. But 2x with that and you'll be good to go.

Yeah it cut very well after 1 time but being a respray and old, some scratches and swirls were pretty bad. With the Black Fire compound the working time is pretty quick so it took little time with the PFW and the compound to do it twice.

MobileJay- Cool car!



Glad the PFW worked out so well for you. Interesting that the PFW worked well on the oxidation; on an bady oxidized Audi I just did the wool just didn't work as well as (cutting) foam. It had me :think: but that's just how it turned out on that car :nixweiss

Nice work with the PFW and SIP. I've used PFW for a while now but just received some SIP recently. So far I love it, great cut and finishes really nice as well.
