I have been detailing w/ my porter cable for over a year. Over this year I have acquired some products and pads and am now in a bit of sensory overload with the products.
Let me start by saying I love SSR 2.5, but no matter what pad, no matter what technique, no matter what speed, I always end up with a bit of micromarring in the paint. I work under many fluorescent lights, a portable halogen light and I even carry a high powered flashlight around with me to assess the paint. I see more details in my paint when working in the garage, than the car will ever see in normal lighting conditions. My goal is the elimination of this micro marring.
I have the following.
SSR2.5
SSR2
SSR1
Optimum Polish
Clearkote Vanilla Moose
Clearkote Red Machine Glaze
Various Waxes (moot point)
Lake Country Pads in following aggressiveness:
Green
White
Black
Blue
Given these products, what combination of polish/pads do you guys recommend?
