  • Small Tight Places on your Vehicle

    On my Tahoe there are some small, not easy to reach areas on the front around the grill, some on the sides and back as well. I am using a PC7424XP on most of it with M205. Any suggestions on what to use in these areas? Am I gonna have to use an applicator and go by hand? TIA

    You'll always need to do the right recesses by hand or with a specialized tool to allow for complete coverage with the product. You can usually cover 90% or more of the exposed surfaces with your PC before you need to trim in with another method.
    Doing the best I can with what I've got.

      You could get some 3" or 4" pads to use with the porter cable or you just may have to hit those areas by hand.

        Would I need to get a smaller backing plate to go with the smaller pads?

          Yep. Most people get a 3" BP to use with a 4" pad.

The silver one demands nothing and it looks just fine. I think the black vehicle is taking advantage of me, and the silver car is more my style. We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.
