Hello All,
I just purchased a Meguiars G110v2 polisher and would like some input as to how best it will fit in with my rotary buffer?
Just FYI, I buffed professionally for 14 years (been a while) but have never used a DA polisher nor Meguiars compounds/polishes; so your input is appreciated. I'm not returning to professional detailing but I may begin buffing out a few friends/family cars on occasion.
* My plan is to use the rotary buffer in the 1st step to remove moderate or severe scratches/swirl marks.
* I will then use the rotary buffer -or- DA polisher in the 2nd step to remove any remaining swirl marks or holograms created or
left from the 1st step.
* I will use the DA polisher for the final 3rd step in applying wax or in removing any final remnants of swirl marks/holograms via a "cleaner wax" if necessary?
1. Am I on the right track?
2. Would M101 and M105 serve well for an occasional weekend warrior as such? What is the shelf life?
3. I prefer to use the rotary in the second step as well (assume faster) but would I be better served going with the DA from that point and reserving the rotary for the initial tough stuff?
Example: I am about to buff out my bosses black '08 Chevy PU. There are only a few minor scratches but the paint is dull/oxidized from neglect. I plan on using the rotary/M101 with 8.5in CCS pad in the first step. Then M105 with 8.5in. CCS polishing pad in second step. Then DA polisher with wax or cleaner wax and Meguiars 6.5in 2.0 pads for last step.
Am I on the right track or is there a better strategy?
God Bless,
Ralph
