After some successful experimenting with my new PC7424, an assortment of pads, and Meg's #83 & #82 on the weekend, I am anxious now to get my entire car as swirl free and shiny as my hood. But I had a question or two before I tackle that big job...
I learned quickly in my experimenting the mess you can make by not being careful and getting some product sling on glass, trim, or adjacent panels, or even getting some in the seams. What options for tape should I use (what width(s), strength, "release"?etc.). Some have mentioned 3M blue painter's tape before, but I noticed in the Meguiar's paint defects video (for example) that they used what appeared to be ordinary masking tape on one of the cars they demonstrated on.
Also, what's the best way to cover large areas like windshields, sunroofs, etc. while you're polishing? Is there some kind of disposable plastic-bag material people tape up, or do they just tape bedsheets or newspapers or what?
Thanks.
