Title: DIY Rotary Content Inside
Post by: Grand Master Patch on 03 March 2011, 19:24
Had a go at polishing my mates car at weekend,not many before pics but quite a few afters.

I'm open to help and ideas of how i can improve,this is my third time using the rotary.

Products used were megs #83 and a sonus sfx1 pad,then megs #80 using a sonus sfx3 pad,the roof and bonnet got a pass with #80 and a lake county final finish pad.After polish we applied P21s paint cleanser
Dodo Red Mist then 2 coats of Dodo Purple Haze Wax.

Overall the car was clean,doused the car with apc,rinsed then washed.Went over it with a clay bar then rinsed again.Pulled the car inside and taped up ready for the carnage.

The only before pic that i can find.

That quarter proved quite tough and had to use some megs#4.
