ike most with pc's, i was intrigued by the meguiar's and forum claims that 105/205 with a pc would work great. so here's a quick review...
tested 105/205 with a pc and the black meguiar's 2.0 7" pad on speed 5 as recommended on '07 audi. worked okay i guess--appearance-wise (the paint was already in good shape) but the pc overheated something fierce (first time that's ever happened). did the kb method of priming pad first (made sure to spread light and evenly on pad) with varying degrees of pressure when polishing but wondering if the 7" pad was too much for the pc...pc actually started smoking. waited a while and used 5.5 lc pads. worked a little better but pc still fought it. did 4 passes with the recommended ~30lbs pressure then lightened it up for another 2-3 passes.
did a side by side under flourescents but really couldn't tell a difference between that and my wolfgang 3.0 tsr/final finish polish. oh well.
normally i use 4" pads with the pc but everyone (including the vendor) said try the 7' 2.0 soft buff pads...
oh well, just bought the sample sizes of 105/205 so no big investment (just can't help myself to try something new).
would love to hear some feedback from anyone who's had similar experiences. i'm guessing there's a simple explanation...
