[explore_02xlt]

hey all i have posted here before and i am having a problem with the 83 DACP. i first washed my truck and dried it, taped off and began to apply #83. well i set my pc on 4.5 and get to going. then when i go to removing it using my pc with the gold class bonnet and the w7006 pad, it will not come off for anything!!! i've got some of it off with a ultimate wipe, but it looks like it's scratching and i'm having to push down HARD to remove it... HELP!! ASAP

Two things.

First, stop using the M83

Second, do you have any other cleaner/polishes or paint cleaners?

If so, which ones do you have?

#7
#80

i guess that's about it

Okay,

wipe off as much of the M83 as you can, then by hand apply some M80 Speed Glaze to a small area where you're having a problem getting the M83 off. You will probably get the best results by cutting up a terry cloth towel and using a peice of terry cloth towel to do the applying with.

Basically, use the M80 as a product remover. You could also try this the the dual action polisher, but I would try by hand first. After you get all of the M83 off, then clean your pad and wipe off the panel and re-polish the are with just the M80.

Call Meguiar's Customer Care at 1-800-347-5700 and tell them what happened and they should take care of you, reference this thread.

Also, I sent you an e-mail asking you to e-mail me your phone number an I will call you on my dime.

Oh yeah...

M83 is water based, you could also just wash the car with soap and water and you should be able to get most/all of it off. Then after drying the car, just stick with the M80 Speed Glaze, or try some of the techniques Tim outlined as he's dead on.

finally got the M83 off, went over the whole truck with M80. ran out of time to put a good coat of NXT on hopefully will do that tomorrow.. anyways here are some pics with the M80 on it.

Looks very good for M80 Speed Glaze, now as soon as you can get one or two coats of wax on the paint and then maintain with a quality car was, quick detailer and follow-up wax jobs.
