Re: Archived Post from old forum

Mine left the US last night. looking forward to givin the car a realy good clean, might need some help understanding all the diff colour pads when it arrives tho lol.

Pads are labelled well when packed, Cutting, Polishing or finishing.

Which ones have you gone for DAS or SFX?

DAS Pads

Cutting - Orange
Polishing - Green
Finishing - Blue

SFX Pads

Cutting - Yellow
Polishing - White
Finishing - Blue

To wash them I use fairy liquid on the pad in a bucket of warm water and hand washing up liquid. Squeeze out the excess products from the pad and allow to soak, rinse with clean water and air dry.

Just thought i'd post up the pics of my repair job with the PC.

The plan was to tackle the etching that had been left on the rear bumper and tailgate by some evil bird crap.

This was what it looked like before i started. This was as good as i could get it after a couple of treatments by hand using some scratch remover.

I used the Sonus SFX-1 Restorer with 4" Spot pad to work on the marked area. I then did the whole of the car with the SFX-2 and 3.

Very pleased with the results, the mark has almost completely gone. Only I would be able to spot it now, and it would take some looking to find.

Since taking the photo's I've applied the Pinnacle Carnauba wax and the finish is amazing. Got to clean the wheels and other stuff yet.

Will take some photos of the finished car later.
