      Re: New DA Thin Foam Discs Review

      Just another follow up. Was doing a little experimentation today on the rear spoiler of my dad's 02 Camaro testing out a couple other polishes. Trying to figure out what polish works best. I ended up going back to good old M205. It's truly hard to beat.

      I originally tried M205 on a new polishing foam disc after doing my initial testing with the other polishes. It did a decent job getting the paint looking better. I still saw some deeper defects. Instead of reaching for some compound I figured why not test out M205 on a burgundy cutting foam disc. I heard some things after listening to a recent podcast on hard vs clear paint and seeing what Kevin Brown has done with the new burgundy cutting disc. So I went ahead and did that. The car has hard paint.

      In the end I followed up with D302 on a Lake Country foam finishing pad to hide any remaining RIDS and then sealed the area.

      50/50 with just M205 on a burgundy foam cutting disc and IPA wipe to remove any polishing oils to see how well this combo performed. I will be going this route for a majority of the car.
