  • excellent job what would ye recommend for fixing a deep scratch on a bumper?

  • @NITEOWL22LR the same process should work if its paint....usually just rotary compounding works well.

  • Do You need to have a rotary and a DA. Can the entire process be done with just a rotary.

    If just the rotary can be used, what would you need to set for the compound process and for the polishing process?

  • @anandrulzs its best to have both a rotary and DA even though you could just use a rotary if thats all you have. For rotary you would use 105, 205, 21 2.0, followed by 135. The pads used in same order would be W5000, W8207, W9207.

  • Also can you tell me what backing plate i need to buy for w8207 pad

  • @sher854 you need the w86 backing plate for rotary and w68DA for a DA machine

  • @meguiarsasia do i have to use a rotary buffer for compounding out the sanding marks or can i use a da polisher

  • Is this clear laquer or just paint finish. Great job anyway .

  • how long would this last? eventually the polish, wax and other compounds will wear/wash off and leave a messed up surface.

  • I recently got my car painted and I have light swirl marks from the buffing job. I used a rubbing compound by hand but swirls are still there. How do I get the swirls out?

  • @meguiarsasia >>> WOw can I use this to sand compound after the clear coat?

  • Thanks for the details
