3,5,6 and 7 inch
Generally running wool or foamed wool. When using foam, I tend to stick to pads in the 1.25 inch thickness range.
Cool. I’ll play!

My favorite rotary polisher! While The Flex pe14 is also very nice, I like this just...
So tell us about this wax!! ;)
Wow looks great. Nice work, Merlin. I’m a huge fan of 210 and a gloss pad.
The Meguiar s APC works. I’m sure the CarPro APC will work also. I believe it’s called MultiX.
Before you buy a new one, I suggest soaking it in warm water with an APC (I like Optimum power clean) overnight then washing as normal. Sometimes things like a drying aid can clog a towel. The APC...
Ultima tire and trim guard is the way to go.
For those who doubt this “lite” coating... do not. I have this on my daily driver over a year now. It’s been thru the northeast winter with road salt and brine.
I have not topped it with...
Ask you painter how long until it is ok to wax/seal/coat the paint system he is using. Could be anywhere from 1-3 months.
Congrats!!
Who was the lucky recipient?
The abrasives in your correction fluids will remove any wax/sealant/coatings on the surface.
Your right. You can never have enough. I’m going to try the Car Pro brushes out next order.
If you haven’t got these yet, You need to!

I got both sizes. Sorry I waited so long to try...
Lol. It’s Jim
Yes. I have a room full of detailing “stuff”. I just cleared a bunch of stuff out myself. Gave it away to friends, and some to the trash man.
I have come to the point that I...
Lol@ Glazed Donut. It’s what I call Ghetto Gloss. Looks like nice stuff.
I think the XL would be too big. I can dry a 4 door dually with the regular one. Maybe if your drying 5 cars in a row you will need that xl. Lol Probably weight 50lbs when wet.
Thought about trying a chipmunk but honestly I think the DMC is perfect so didn’t wanna change.
Heath!! I like the white. They are a drying towel Not a washing towel. Now if you don’t wash correctly, perhaps then white would be an issue. Lol
Shall we review your wash techniques? Hahahaha
Your wasting your time and money. Glass isn’t like paint in terms of polishing. You can polish by hand till eternity and get zero results besides some cramps and arthritis! You really need a rotary...
So I got a DMC back in July of 2013.
Today I received two more. After 7 years and probably 500 washes (guesstimate), my original still feels exactly like the new ones. If it wasn’t for the...
Nicely done!! Looks fantastic.
I had the pleasure to work on one of these late last year. The factory paint was absolutely flawless. There was zero orange peel and not one flaw that I could find....
I want to win a CarPro wash box!!!
Nice work. Looks fantastic!
