Some serious BLACK paint surgery!! Before and After
#16
Thanks everyone, my car paint really needed some TLC and now she has it haha. Like George said I just need to maintain it now.
I had more then one of each pad. One pad is only good for about one panel specially if it is as bad as mine was.
The quantity of each pad is the last number on the original post. I had to order one more yellow pad. If your going to use Power Gloss I would get atleast 3 yellow pads.
Oh yea do not forget the pad cleaner I believe it's called Snappy. That stuff is amazing and saves a **** load of time and effort!
Lake Country 4 Inch Blue Fine Finishing Pad - 4" 2
Lake Country 4 Inch Orange Light Cutting Pad - 4" 4
Lake Country 4 Inch White Polishing Pad - 4" 4
Lake Country 4 Inch Yellow Cutting Pad - 4" 2

Also, I noticed you listed the quantity of polish - is that how much you used, or how much you purchased?
I'm looking to buy the 8oz bottles before I spend too much. Thanks

The quantity of polish I put is what I purchased. I used no where near that lol. I can probably do the same thing to about 5 more cars and maybe still have some left over polish.
Check out some Youtube videos you use a very small quantity of polish per panel.
Good luck!

Your car looks SICK...this is exactly what I want mine to look like next spring. I actually have a porter cable and menzerna products that I used on my Accord and got the same results. Now that I am paralyzed, I will have to pay out the *** for someone else to detail it. PS: you have convinced me that 25mm spacers are the way to go. Thanks!
