      Thanks, why not an 82 or 3? Dimishing abrasives or oil/water additives? Do these contain fillers and how about the 205? Why are you suggesting this when the label states it has a cut of 4 and you have others that are lower and diminish. You micro should be used at a constant speed if used on a rotary correct? What is the recommended speed/pad Megs suggests for this product?

      Thank you for the help,

        I was just recommending them based upon the performance of the product matching it to what you said you want to do.

        From this thread and note the owner said the paint on this car was easily scratched.


        Tommy, aka CreamPuff brought his creampuff Lexus IS-F for some help removing a small stain that etched the paint. Tommy said he's found the paint on his IS-F to be very soft and to scratch very easily and was worried about causing more damage to the paint trying to remove the stain. We used one of our new products for 2009 by hand and completely removed the etching without instilling any extra defects in the process.




        Here's a shot of the hood, the etching is on the passenger side, middle of the hood.




        It's the small roundish spot to the left of the point of light with the 3 fine scratches running through it. The spot is actually more noticeable than we were able to capture with our camera.








        New Product for 2009 21-13B to the rescue, applied by hand...



        Tommy like!



        Mike like!



        After removing the defect we applied some NXT Tech Wax 2.0 using our new washable W9207 Finishing Pad



        Here's the results... a crystal clear, defect free finish...



        The problem with completely removing a defect is there is no after picture, that is there's nothing to capture with your camera... success has it's downside...

          All good questions, but after you use this product all the questions in the world will kind of dissapear like a vapor as the products work so well.

          Until then maybe try M09 Swirl Remover 2.0

            Thank you, I stay far away from anything with fillers, so 9 is out. I will wait and try out the 205.

            When will it be available?
