    Thank Calgary :chest:

    German pads work incredably well, as for the 3M you know what Al, I got the exact same products as the UK version but the US version and I wasen't pleased with the US 3M products. I got chatting with Rich and I placed a smaller order exactly the same 3M products but just a bottle of each, I've used the 3M UK version about two to three times now on a spare panel I got at home..lol..yes I polish inside my house hahahaha..and well I prefer the 3M UK over the 3M US....I think I'm not the only one that noticed this as Detailers Domain got some of the products and said he noticed the 3M UK version worked a lot better. I'll keep using the 3M UK verion some more and keep comparing it with the 3M US version :shead: :shead: as for the Mirka yea that would be wicked if I could get my hands on the water feed sander lol.

    Oh the Menzerna Gel is for the Lexus buddy, Lexus is the golden child for now lol..that and a special vehicle I got coming up in June or so :whistle:

    Thank you Motor :hug: german applicators well mostly for applying wax but also for applying HD Clense :thumb: As for the sanding discs, the nice thing with these that they are not like your regular sanding paper. I plan on using them by hand and with the extra cusion on them...oooh actually think of them as the 3M backing plate..yea exactly the same feel so this will allow me to apply even pressure on the surface..something I really was always cautious with the regular sanding paper :thumb:

    Phil, man these German applicators are wicked, I had only one, I made the mistake of ordering one and what a mistake that was, so placed this order with 12 more of them. They work great with wax..specially the high end wax...you heat them up and rub the surface of the wax and it's like butter melting mmmm....so good....well that's how I'll be using them..hopefully, not unless I decide to apply the wax by hand lol which I love doing...man handeling the vehicle is the best feeling ever :woo: :woo:

    As for the disk, looking at them I think they would fit my Cyclo...but I don't know if I'd ever use that so I'm just going to stick with using them by hand.

    Nice order as usual Nica! Isn't it always the case that you find something you love and you only ordered one of them. By the way how are you heating them up?

    oh they feel great, can't wait to put the them to good use :wicked:

    Oh come on I've seen some incredable orders by a few other guys...some..I kid you not have made my jaw drop like this :yikes: :yikes: but thank you P1et :thumb:

    yea tell me about it, to be honest it was Jayplay that incuraged me to try them out so I did and they are great after using it the first time I nearly did this :thud:

    As for heating them well, there are several ways...one is with the 1000W lights another is aham..with my wifes hair dryer, thhe hair dryer works great...but I'm getting a heat gun it should work even better just need to be a bit more carefull with the heat gun...well see how it goes with the heat gun :shead:

    Man I just saw a heat gun at Big Lots today and wondered if that would be handy in detailing. A hair dryer huh.

    Nice buy, I need some 3M in my arsenal. Im looking at fast cut plus and the ultrafine.

    nice order Carlos, you must of spent a fortune over last few months on products and shipping......dont know if Rich or Clark mentioned to you but when using 3m fast cut plus add a bit of 3m ultrafina to pad aswell. Makes it bit less dusty and works a treat..

    careful with a heat gun..they do get hot..I mean hot..I use them to strip paint on furniture...A hair dryer is a safe way to heat stuff like emblems and decals on a car...warm pads and stuff...
