The MB paint isn't soft, but I have a black Acura TSX to do next weekend and I've been wanting to try PoliSeal. Hmmm.



I have a black expedition to do this weekend, it's has hardly any swirls but it's got a hellafied haze to it. He said he took it to have someone detail it and it looked good at first but a few days later the haze showed up. It looks like they took a rag that was contaminated with a chemical of some sort and applied it all over the sides of the truck. I'm hoping I can get it out, we'll see. I'm gonna use DG 105 and see if that works, if so I'll finish it out with that and remove the haze with 951
 
rfk... once again.. helluva job bro!



I must say.. I share the same opinion on the CMA CCS pads. I am very unhappy with the performance of the pads. I mean, dont get me wrong, I have turned out some great results but they break down extremely fast and the one thing that upset me the most is they dont hold their rigidy at all. The last couple details Ive done with them Ive come to believe that the blue layer they added is a total gimick... in an effort to make a cheaper pad with less "good" foam yet still sell them for the same price. I find that I really like my flat regular Autogeek pads much better for many reasons.



Needless to say I wont be purchasing the CMA CCS pads again... I *might* try the Autogeek CCS pads but the more I think about it the more Im thinking you just cant go wrong with the good ole' flat pads.



Sorry for the rant but Im glad Im not the only one with the same opinion on the CMA CCS pads.



Looking forward to seeing more of your rotary details! :cool:

Thanks man.



Yeah, I'll not be getting anymore of those CMA CCS pads, no thanks. I have no issues with how well they performed, but they are clearly not made to be durable.

CMA = Classic Motoring Accessories aka properautocare.com
 
oh ok good is that a good place to order from? i didnt wanna start a new thread but every time i search menzerna its the first thing that comes up, they have Red Moose as well.



Which wax/glaze would be good for an LSP from clearkote?

CMW would be my choice, it's what I used on the Mercedes, I misted some DG AW on the haze and buffed them off together



Yeah, CMA was very prompt with my order so I'd definitely order from them again. Knowing that LC made the pads for them, that's who my beef is with, not CMA.
