  • Nanoskin Pad lubricant? and size?

    I'm looking to change over to the nanoskin pad. Can I use it on the Da Polsiher? Should I get the 4" or 6"? I have the W68DA adapter on it now, so I'd think the 6 inch would be the right one to use with it. Also what lubricant can I use with it? know they have Glide lube, but can I use Last Touch for it? I've got a big order of goodies to purchase this weekend, so I need to get all the info I need.

    Thanks

    Yes you can use last touch, I've used it a few times and had no issues. I do prefer glide though.

    I would get the 6in pad and the 4 in pads if you can afford it, gives you the versatility to do large panels and small sections that the 6in pad will be too big.

    I think you will really enjoy the nanoskin over claying, really easy and provides excellent results.

      Last touch is to slippery.
      just use water with a few drops of car soap in it.
      Get the 6", Also I only use these on big flat surfaces and the Speedy Prep Towel for the harder to reach spots.
      and it's made for your da.

        I love using ONR with my speedy prep towels and nanoskin wash mitts

          Last Touch is a great clay lube, but we recommend diluting it 1:1 with water for this purpose. The W68DA backing plate may not be the best choice since the loop material does not extend to the perimeter of the plate. You should use either the S3BP with the 4" Nanoskin or our S6BP with the 6" Nanoskin.

              I already have the S3BP for the 4" foam pads. SO I'm good there.

                I just picked up the Nanoskin Wash Mitt and love it, rinse, wash and then wash/clay at the same time with the mitt and soap/water. I usually dilute LT at 1:1 and love it. I find it too streaky when used straight.

                  I'm going to use the Glide that comes with it for now, But next purchase is the Last Touch to add to my collection on my next order of goodies. Since I've been doing waterless washes, I'll more than likely just use the lube for now.

                  Also I just ordered the Nanoskin Autoscrub Pad Kit that comes with the Glide lube, MF towel and pad. Ordered the S6BP backing plate as well.
