SONUS SFX problem

[DJ Trackie]

Mike-in-Orange,



I see quite a few things you might want to try differently.



First of all, your pad/product combination is a little off. SFX3 is the cutting polish of the set, SFX2 is the light cut/medium polish, and SFX1 is the finest polish/little to no cut which means you should use the proper type of pad that corresponds with each product. You mentioned using SFX1 with an orange DAS pad, well, that's not a good combo. You used a cutting pad with a non-cutting polish.

i think you got it backwards!

I cannot think of what I am doing differently but I have not had any problems using SFX. I find it very effective and easy to work with

OOPS! You are completely correct. I always seem to become dyslexic when it comes to the SFX polishes!



I edited my post accordingly.

1100 rpm is the lowest the FLEX can , but that machine is soooooo light compared with others.

It barely weights 2 kg 's..

I do about 1/4 of a hood, that's about 2'-2' like you said...

Now, after polishing several cars, things go better, but the SFX 2 and especially the 3 (final glaze) smears and dry up too fast for me.



Of to the shop for some Meguiars stuff....

Before you run off to buy the Meg's, you just *might* want to look into either Menzerna or Optimum polishes. They seem to be great products to use witht the rotary. Very long working times. I say this because I used #83 DACP with my rotary not that long ago and it dried up very fast as well.
