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

Any reason why you chose Menzerna? I was looking at the optimum line (since it's cheaper).

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

Lol I was looking at Optimum also because it was cheaper. But I didn't see as good reviews as I did with Menzerna. George from Detailed Image also said it was better then Optimum and that you don't want to cheap out on the polish because that's what does most of the recovery. I didn't see one negative review on Menzerna polishes. My review will be positive too!! lol

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!

Awesome work man!

Did you use a counter weight (or do they even have one for 4" pads)?

i don't know why but when i use the porter cable.. it's shake alot.. so i give up ..

You probably need to use a counter-weight

I need a detail shop in North Jersey that can do this to my black G... Anyone have any recomendations???

Your car looks great bro.... I wish i could do the same to mine...

Great results!

awsome job.

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!

My shop is in Pennsauken, I can't tell you how many clients come down from N.Y. For our corrective services.

Feel free to shoot me a PM if you'd like some more info.

Nick
