    Finally broke the machine polisher cherry with a Porter Cable which I got from Ken at Autowerkesexclusive.


    In addition to the Porter Cable I also got

    2 x Lake Country CCS Orange Pad 5.25 in
    2 x Lake Country CCS Green Pad 5.25 in
    1 x Lake Country CCS Green Pad 4 in
    1 x Menzerna Powerfinish PO203
    1 x Poorboy's World EX sealant
    1 x Micro-restore
    1 x Set of raceglaze brush set

    Very happy with everything. Ken was very helpful in answering my questions regarding the use of the porter cable and helped me choose pads and polish for a first timer. Since I live relatively close to autowerkes I suspect I'll be returning quite often for more goodies!

    The flash wax is easy to apply and easy to wipe off, however it does get quite dusty. Leaves a slick finish and has a bit of fillers for minor swirls. It also has a nice fruity cherry scent to it, I am always tempted to taste it.:crasy:

    welcome to the forum!


    The Brown Royal is awesome on wheels with baked on break dust. I bought a gallon and have had a lot of success on some wheels that have not been washed in over 4 months
