But I would need a different backing plate and adapter for the smaller LCC pads, correct? I didn't realize that you needed the W68 for soft buff pads.

Not for the 5-5.5" pads, if you want to use 4" pads you'll need one of these:


Which you can get from AutoDetailingSolutions.com

Lot of info here, I can see how you can easily drop $3-$500!

you dont need the W68 for soft buff 2.0 pads.

the W67 will work fine.

Re: Recommendations for Starting Out on G110 Purchase

the w68 is not needed, but made specifically for the new pads....depending on how small CCS pads you get will make a new backing plate needed...

The kit from ADS comes with the W67 backing plate. If you wanted too you could get the W68 backing plate since it was made specifically for the SoftBuff 2.0 pads.

I myself am gonna order the W68 soon but so far the W67 is giving me great results .

If you get the kit from Rick and try the pads (2 yellow Meg's and 1 black Meg's) you will be satisfied. Bounty once told me to give those a shot and see if that works, if not get some of the other pads. I got the kit from ADS and I have only needed another type of pad one time and that was on a really stubborn set of water etching. I didn't get the pad because I was working on a daily driver and realized it was not going to be perfect, but real close. Just my two cents.

Yes, M105 is DA approved.

MrCl, will get back to you on the 80 as soon as I decide on what I'm going to order.

Re: Recommendations for Starting Out on G110 Purchase

Re: Recommendations for Starting Out on G110 Purchase

Your off to a good start in terms of product selection.

M04- rotary use only I believe
M07- Pure Polish, works fine with the G110
Both ScratchX versions are fine
is your M105 DA approved?
M06- great AIO, works fine
M09- Meguiars most gentle cleaner/polish in the Pro Line, still works great on its own.
DC1- less aggressive than M09
D151- as you know already, most powerful AIO and has good correcting power.


I would also get:

SwirlX- can be found locally
Ultimate Compound- can be found locally
NXT 2.0- can be found locally
ColorX- can be found locally


You may want to order these since they are hard to find locally ( try a PBE store too)

M80 Speed Glaze
M205 Finishing Polish
M82 Swirl Free Polish ( a little more aggressive than M09)

Re: Recommendations for Starting Out on G110 Purchase

I have heard that with a 4" pad the G110 just is almost too much to handle, alot of people are using the rotary with the 4" pads..
