Hi Fred,

ColorX is an aggressive cleaner/wax but it's not near as aggressive as compound or a paint cleaner. You should be able to safely use it as often as you like.

Note: If you're working on a neglected finish and using this product fairly aggressively to restore it to new condition, in the future, you won't have to use it as aggressively because you will have already restored the finish. That is unless you let the finish degrade again.

Remember, part of the cleaning strength of a cleaner wax comes from you, and the pressure you apply either by hand or machine.

Hope this helps...

Mike

Sounds like Barry and the Car Crazy Team need ship out for a tour of duty in Europe.

The must be millions of helpless, deprived car finishes over there begging to be saved and maintained.

I finally found a retailer who my sold, +83, +82, nxt wax, colorx, scratchx, software buff!pas badly but I must still find dual action polisher because meguiars DA is not distributed in Europe

[fred]

has your opinion that to choose, MAKITA, BOSCH, METABO, DEWALT? orbital or dual action? it is my beginning thus before making the bad choice!

[the other pc]

I believe all of those companies make tools that will work very well. Be sure to choose one that has a hook and loop (Velcro) backing plate available.

You may also find that Flex and Festo also make very good polishers.

Hi Fred,

To date, the dual action polisher built by the Porter Cable company is the de-facto polisher for ease of use and consistency in results. Once you get one, here is a thread that discussion how to safely power it considering the differences in our electrical systems.

Hey there bought a PC now need the products and a Power Converter

I'm not sure what those other companies offer that is similar.

Hi Fred,

I've used the Makita BO6040 and so far I would not recommend it. It works, but it's not as easy or fool proof as the Porter Cable unit. I have not used the Bosh GEX 150.



It may work for polishing paint but it's one of those things that you'll never know till you try.

I know many people have used a transformer of some type to adjust for the electrical supply in your country and the electrical requirements for the dual action polisher. This would probably be the best route to go.

your model is bosch GEX150AC only DA and turns has 4500/12000t/min. the model that I saw is the GEX150TURBO. it is orbital for the 83 DACP or DA for the wax NXT.le salesman say is the best it turns 290/620T/min. on www.bosch.fr helping me I cannot what has to see think. for the DA meguiars poter-cale impossible to find in europe!on finds the G104F but is not professionel!
