    just accept it for the workout it is going to be. It's like hitting puberty in detaling, when it happens you finally become a man

    Yes I have a PC and a Mikita. I don't have any Meguire's stuff ( never liked any of Meguire's product ) ans I did try a bunch of different pads, compounds and polish's and different brands.

    It's deffinitly not all Subaru's, I have an blue 04 WRX and my girl friend has an 02 silver WRX and I never had a problem with them. My ex girl friend had a black 05 WRX too haha and never had a problem.

    My buddy said he had the same problem using Meguire's on his car and he use's a PC. The car is back in his hands now, we might attempt some more tricks in the near future.

    Thank you for every ones help!

    I have never tried this, but I have read on a few different forums that gloss it polishes work well with sticky clear coats. Whenever I get a vehicle with a sticky clear coat the meguiars twins (105 & 205) usually preform good.

    The Gloss-It polishes do work very well on sticky paints, especially by DA - a combination I use alot :)

    Black Subarus are the WORST for sticky paint. Sometimes it's so sticky that I actually use my Cyclo polisher instead of a rotary. This usually solves the problem.

    Yes it's definately sticky clear coat. This can be overcome with Parrafin oil or EVP pad prime. it's a PITA with a rotary but D/A's dont have as much of a problem

    Gloss it products do work very well on these paints, though I've only heard that and dont use GI's
    If you go down the parrafin oil route, dont use too much on the surface or the pad as it can cause hydro/aquaplanning of the abrasives and reduce the corrective ability of a polish and by nature, with a rotary will fill in paint defects by a small amount

    If and when I re launch my business, I won't be using abrasives at all as I am working on a permanent filling system with far superior gloss than any abrasive work possible.
