Daily Driver: Full correction and winter prep

as allways great atention to detail . thanks for sharing nice job .

 

that's a very yellow polishing setup you've got there haha. you should get a dewalt to complete it!

detail looks very well done. and the foam cannon looks bad ass!

 

Looks great!

I don't know how I lived without my Makita, and I really don't know why people fear the rotary!

Amazing work, car looks fantastic!

 

That thing looks brand spanking new, wow!

 

nice work. I wish I could wash my car while wearing shorts!

 

Car looks great! How did you like the rotary?

 

Looking good, so did ya have any oopsi's with the rotary? Nice job on getting it ready for winter...

 

Thanks, I love foam cannon myself! Thanks on Detalt, by I decided to go with Makita, it's lighter.

Thanks, me too, I just love my Makita. No more vibrations, and faster correction!!!

Thanks, it actually does, I was never able to achieve this perfection level with PC7424, not even with Flex DA, although Flex still did a pretty good job. Gotta love those Uber yellow pads!!!

Thanks, Roger. And yes, you may wear shorts, although it could depend on your weather...

Thanks, I love it! It is not as hard as I thought.

thanks. I love my Makita. I always had a fear to use a rotary, being scared to burn the paint. The main key is to keep this thing moving, and overlap your passes 50%.

I'll be doing more paint corrections with it this year, I really wanna master it.

 

haha - you need to move south! 90 degrees this weekend in Orlando - it's hard to believe that it's almost November.

 

Supercharged, how is the Zymol sponge? It looks very similar to the Phil's Uber sponge.

 

I have both and cannot tell the difference between two. It's the same thing!

 

:yikes: Now that's interesting. I have an Uber sponge (which I really like) and I was thinking about trying out the Zymol sponge. No need to waste my money now.

Thanks :thumb:

Btw, what did you think of the AG HD? It looks pretty good.

 

They zymol sponge in my experience is a bit firmer to the feel. They're probably both equally soft, useful, size, and equal in amount of suds it can hold.

 

Looks great!

 

they are the same, I have 2 Uber, and 3 Zymol sponges.
I really like AG HD, it's really a hidden gem. Very easy application, paintwork looks bright. I've seen a video how well it sheets water...I haven't washed it since I detailed it...Will see...

they are the same, like I said I have 2 Uber and 3 Zymol sponges...both work equally well, and hold a good equal amount of water/suds...love 'em!!!

thanks, Justin!
