I am writing because I am wondering if any you may be able to offer some suggestions on what products I need. I attended a Road Show with Mike Phillips a few years ago in Tampa Florida and learned a great deal about specific applications and product usage. I got pretty involved with detailing after that show as a side job to my being a full time firefighter, but due to health issues and starting another job over the last few years I haven't been able to do much detailing. This leads me to my question. When I detailed before I used my G110 along with the Meguiars pads (7006,8006,9006 I believe) with # 83 and #80 followed by #21 when I was tackling a job with swirls/scratches ect.
Since I have been away from detailing a while, all my products have gone bad and I am about to order some more. I will not be doing any detailing on other people's vehicles, just my own personal ones. I will need new pads and new products. My question is about the pads and any new products that may have been introduced in last 2 years.
I will be primarily working on a Nissan Titan and Murano, both of which are daily drivers. I am just wanting to "clean the paint" I guess you could say. I have the consumer clay kit that is sold at auto parts store that I will using too. I am basically wanting to remove surface scratches and swirls from both vehicles to make them look the best I can and then top them off with a protective seal. I am wondering if the 83 and 80 combo is still the best for what I am wanting or is there another product application or combo that will produce better results. I am also looking to get new pads as my old ones are toast. I saw the new 2.0 7" pads and the redesigned 7006/8006/9006 as well in 5.5". I'm just wondering if one is better than the other or what is the advantage/disadvantage to one or the other. I know I would have to get new backing plates for 7" because what I have now is for 5.5. I'm guessing the 7" can be used on the G100 and 110?
I was planning on topping it off with #21 unless once again there is another product that you would recommend as a LSP that is better.
