Black cars in full sun separate the men from the boys. Nice!

Good photography on the "after" shots catching some cool reflections.

Was that with the DA polisher then? I'm amazed at how well it works with the new polishes. I have fallen in love with my DA all over again! The DA with a cutting pad and M105 can do some pretty serious correction.

Can't wait to see the next car!

Re: '00 Black Mustang

I used a FLEX DA with just a polishing pad. I tried a cutting pad but the heat of the FLEX caused the pad to fail and come apart.

I'm beginning to dislike M105 however because the polish always flash dries and dusts.

I did switch to a CCS Pad with four small dots of M105 and cleaned the pad after every panel but even then it occasionally dried up on me

Re: '00 Black Mustang

M105 seems touchy to me, but the hassle is worth the results I've gotten. Using it with a polishing pad on the rotary is cake. I'm really good at ruining cutting pads, so I tend to use the solo light cutting wool pad and that works great. It does seem that getting too much pressure toward an edge on the cutting pad causes almost instant dusting. I need more practice!
