What did YOU just order? (Reading Comprehension Test)

[S197gt07]

I had ordered a couple things from Autoality a few weeks ago, and was saddened that the V07 was on backorder.

I saw it was in stock, so decided to shoot them an email about it. I got a response, an hour later, and he felt so bad he decided to give me 2 bottles of it!

Talk about customer service, wow. Will never hesitate to order from him again.

^ Good choice, welcome to the addiction.

 

[Fuerte]

Man everyone is buying a Porter cable wish I could pick one up but I want to lower my car next month :/

PC7424XP or the Flex 3401 are your best bets. I personally prefer the Flex, but it is $300 if you like DA's. Lately I just use my Flex rotary though and the DA for finishing.

 

[NastyStang113]

Flex 3401VRG for the win!

 

[Torched S197]

Flex 3401VRG for the win!

Agreed!

Eventually I'll upgrade to the flex from my PC....too many other projects in the way for now though.

Hello. My name is Ras, and I'm a Flex addict.

Also, I just ordered some more 303 for the vinyl convertible top, and some Sonax wheel cleaner. I was running low.

To be honest, I'd keep the PC, and buy a Flex rotary or a Makita. Learn it on some scrap panels or what not.

Use rotary to cut/compound, use PC to finish. You'll cut detailing time in half. Although if you want just 1 buffer, the Flex 3401 VRG cannot be beat. It is the best comprimise for the safety of a DA but the speed/cut quality of a rotary.

I'm not sure when Walmart(or mine) started carrying good meguiars products, but me and the girlfriend went to look for a front lisence plate bracket, I seen they had 105, 205, one of there buffers, pads and some other stuff. I didn't look at everything so I'm sure I missed some but it surprised me to see it there.

 

[Seer]

I kind've like D300 a little more than 105 now for meguiars compounds. D300 seems to not marr as much, finishes a little nicer.

 

[Torched S197]

I haven't tried that yet. I've got half a bottle left so I'll have to order some new stuff pretty soon, so may give it a shot

D300 is meant for DA's and the microfiber system, but it still works well with foam pads.

I feel you will need a polish for compounding just in case as well as orange pads.

The finishing polishes do not have a lot of bite to them, they are meant more for cleaning up the micromarring left from compounds and more abrasive polishes and not defect removal.

I know you'll never need this abrasive of a pad but stay away from yellow pads, they're evil and a pain to finish, purple foam wool will always be better if heavy cutting is needed.
