White GC6 (2000 subaru impreza 2.5RS)



my first lesson on how to burn paint...



I wasnt expecting to get every scratch out, and some are still there after my first lesson, along with some pretty bad rock chips and pits... but I am extremely happy with the results of my first machine polishing attempt.

I used a Makita bo6040 dual action sander.



Steps:

• Wash with dawn
  
• Clay
  
• Take off scoop, vents, wing
  
• Bug and tar spray on the front parts
  
• rinse
  
• Clay some more
  
• Clay even more on stubborn tar spots
  
• Menz IP/orange pad (multipl passes in forced rotation mode)
  
• wash with dawn again
  
• Menz FPII and white pad (multple passes in Forced rotation mode then RO mode)
  
• Wash with dawn again
  
• Collinite 845 with white pad
  
• Put on scoop, vents, wing
  
• finish up with collinite 845
  
• followed up with hand buf with microfiber towel

Nice job . Very impressive for that first time job . I also use the Makita BO6040 and it works really good for me . It is a perfect combination of both worlds. I hardly ever use my PC anymore . For soft Suby paints I always reach for the BO6040 . I also have the Makita Rotary that is a very good machine for polishing .

Anyway the job came out very good congratulations . Thanks for sharing .
