I have bad water spots from the cement and fly ash dust in the air
from the concrete plant i used to work at
and it takes about 10+ times going over it with the claybar and swirl remover to get them out

Ive heard the porter cable will help
my arms about to fall off

if so...model #s, prices, and where to get would be helpful
also any info on polishes, pads etc would help

 

The model everyone will suggest is the 7424. I got it not too long ago and used it with the same wax I had been doing by hand and it worked well. I had a bunch of waterspots on the hood and roof and they came off with a little work. I could still feel my arms too! I know there are others that know more about polishes, waxes, and pads so I will let them chime in on that.

 

thanks 02

I searched 7424 and found some good info here https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...ight=7424+7336

didnt know there was so much info out there on it

 

I guess that pretty much sums it up.

 

If I had to recommend anything it'd be the 7424 with the Menzerna twins, and depending on how bad things are you might wanna start with the yellow compounding pad instead of the orange. Here's a couple of pics of my Formula that I just used the previously stated method on this past week. And who says white can't be reflective

 

This web forum has all the infomation you will ever need. Lots of great stuff

damn
makes me wish my truck was white

do you have to order the backingplate and pads
or wheres the best place to look without ordering
online?
paint shop?

 

I ordered the backingplate and pads when I bought the buffer. You can find everything on PAC. Definately make sure to tape up your trim though, cause it saved me on my car, cause I was able to get right up against all the trim without having to worry about ruining it. It took me a little longer since I'm still getting used to using this buffer, but overall I think I have about 15 hours in the car getting it to where it is now. I'm not ready to tackle the truck yet, as the paint on it wasn't cared for from the outstart apparently and has severe scratches.

 

I think Ill practice on the company truck

gotta link 4 PAC?

 

http://www.properautocare.com/ Everything you should need is on there. FWIW, I'm going to a 7" pad when I reorder to have a little more cusion against the edge of the backing plate. You can still use a 7" pad with the 6" backing plate you'll get. If you got anymore questions just ask.
