  • g100 accesories

      Well i know ads has a pad deal 6 pads for 50 bucks. So i would get that. I got 3 8006 pads, 2 9006 pads and a 7006 pad. Use the 7006 pad for the microfiber bonnet when you remove the wax. So also get a pack of microfiber bonnets. What I would recommend cleaner wise would be #80 and #83. Thats pretty much all i need with the g100. Oh, also the nxt wax of course.

          I got the $50 pack of pads (7006x2, 8006x2, and 9006x2) I acutally use the 7006 though, it doesnt mar my paint, but I am extremely cautious with it (lots of peeps do not recommend it on this board). I also remove my wax/sealant with MF's, I havent tried the bonnets out yet. -Something about rubbing that MF over the smooth paint at the end of a project that is great!
          You ll also need to pick your arsenol of choice when it comes to cleaners, polishers, and waxes. Mine consists of #83, #80, #07, and #21.

          Congrats on the pending purchase!

            As stated above, you can not have to many pads. You will want to label each pad for each product you use and try not to mix products if you can help it. I like #80, #83, #7 and NXT paste. I find that I cannot cover an entire car with a cleaner/polish without switching to a new pad (it gets gunked up).

              Def order a whole bunch of microfiber towels.

              As for the g100, I had to order the velcro backing plate. As suggested above, get a few foam pads.

                  I got package 2. It's got everything to get started except for the 7006 pad. A few more Supreme shines are nice too.

                    Hummmm

                    Well get 1 9006 pad for every wax you want to try. I have used NXT Paste and Liquid, #21, DC#3, #16 so each has its own 9006 pad.

                    I would suggest keeping

                    3 of the 8006 pad for #80
                    2 of the 8006 pad for #83
                    1 of the 7006 pad for Removing Wax with MF Bonnet
                    2 Packs of Microfiber Bonnets ( 4 bonets total )


                    As for product

                    #83, #80, #7, #21, NXT Liquid would be my suggestion for starting out.

                    2 packs Even Coat Aplicators ( 4 Total )

                    And for the its personal preferance, you may find a combo that works better for you, I am still tinkering with Waxes.

                        Very good blend of products. My thoughts exactly. Eventually you will end up buying it all. This stuff is addictive!
