3m Perfect-it III - Opinion?

<< < (3/3)

stealthwolf:
As above, different professionals use different products and more importantly, they know the properties of their products and hence which will suit which paintwork. FWIW I use Menzerna polishes. I did have 3M pads but have since switched to chemical guys. However, I find their hex-logic pads deteriorate quickly so going to make the jump to Sonus pads next.

xjay1337:
Orange pads do go quickly. You can get 1 car from 1 pad.
However if you use a 5.5 inch backing plate rather than a 5 inch the pads last longer.
The extra heat by using the 5 inch backing plate can cause the center of the pad to deform.

I'm still on the same white pad after 3 cars. (used to refine)

Jacker:
Sorry dude, I didn't mean for it to come over as if i was questioning your integrity :)

I may have to try this Menzerna stuff.. Sounds like good quality products.

cuprajake:
Indasa make a good pad to be used with green top fast cut. A lot better than the 3m pad

Gman30:
Was going to purchase the full Perfect it III kit myself to detail my 30. Just wondering how the fast cut compares to Farecla G3 Liquid compound ?


Is it much more aggressive?
