Default Recommendations on polish/wax?


lol yea I did see the black box there. I was debating on getting that but it only came with 12oz bottles of polish and wax and the meguiars were 16oz bottles and they were cheaper. that was my retarded reasoning. maybe Ill get that next time.

I usually only use an electric buffer for polishing. I think that helps to clean all the oxidation, dirt, scratches, and other crap off the paint before waxing. I then usually just wax by hand. I dont think that necessarily needs to be with an electric buffer since you are really just applying the wax to coat your paint not clean your paint. Thats what I thought.

i like the pink box. a electric buffer gets the job done faster, but if you like to take your time doing it by hand is the way to go. i really think the out come is the same if you know what your doing.

Got my first bird shit today. I think it looks pretty good. Right on the top of my fender. Gives it a little contrast.

It probably adds a lot of weight too. I can feel the difference in second gear. Not as much torque. It feels a little sluggish
