Default Re: How to correctly detail your auto

What is the perfect it # on the bottle? Some of 3m's stuff is top-notch, some is really crappy imo. and if you use a compound, you need to be shure to follow it with a polish to gloss up the paint and remove any micro-marring. Then follow with 101 and 105 as needed.

I use just a MF towel for polish/wax removal, and woolite in the washer for pads/towels cleaning them.

If you are looking for a good alternative to 3M, try mothers Power Polish, it's pad dependant, meaning that if you use it on a cutting pad, it's a compound, if you use it on a polish pad, it's a polish.
