    You may not be a Pro, but I'm not a BlueZero! Thanks for heads up.

          I just ordered some. This stuff should work basically with any pad or cloth and rubbing by hand right?

            M105 is nothing short of a god send for me.

            Look at this hack body work!!



            partially sanded left was 3000 right was 2500 ( I think...these photos are a bit old)

            Then BAM M105 Action!

                  Is that by hand or rotary? I still don't understand why if it works by hand why it wouldn't work with a DA

                      It would have easily have taken me 30 mins more if it wasn't for M105. Great product, I have nothing but great things to say about it. I splurged and bought a gallon a while back and I have never looked back to regular compounding!

                        Somewhere on this forum I've already written a detailed answer to this question, instead of re-typing it let me try to locate it.

                        It's less about how it remove defects and more about how it can be more difficult to work with by getting dusty and drying up on you while you're working with it and then this creates an unhappy customer especially if the person using this product with a DA Polisher is a Newbie

                        Hang tight...

                          What kind of pads do you use when working with M105 and your DA, and at what speed? I was thinking about playing with a few new toys this weekend. I got some 4" pads (orange, white), 3.5" PFW, M105 and M151.

                            I remember getting a lot of great answers in a post I started about the subject. I'll take a look too.

                            Edit: Found it... M105 with a DA. Why not?

                              I'm drawing a blank, can't remember what pads I was using that day. It was either Meg's 6.5" polishing or a 5" LC white. If I remember right it was really hot that day and I was working in partial sun on my black Jeep.

                              I just picked up some 4" LC white pads and played with those a bit. It worked good for a while but then started to gum up. I'm pretty sure that I was using way too much product. I want to try it again using a smaller amount. I also played with M95 and D151. The next day when I was cleaning my pads I was laughing since they where all super saturated with product. I just was squeeze happy on the bottle that day I guess. Sometimes old habits die hard, if a little is good more must be better. Not the case.
