    wow, thats a really great job. if you dont mind, i have a question for you. while you were using the pc, did you notice any white "specs" on the car? while i was working on my mom`s benz, i noticed all of these tiny white specs, that wouldnt come off, so i had to use a buffing compound to get them off. maybe its splatter, becuase i put too much product... im not sure. but anyways, did you experience any of that? also, out of curiosty, did you use the pc on the windows too?

    Well, after using PC on the body with Meg`s #9, there were a few tough spots with some left over polish residue`s that i had to buff out with the MF towel. When i did a walk around, i also noticed some small splatter makrs (very inconspicuous, but still there) that i didnt see before, and proceeded in buffing those out too. Some of them required substantial amounts of pressure, but i did the best i could without marring the paint surface (this is where quality towels become important).

    I do not use a PC on windows.

    The tiny white specs may possibly be the dried up product residue that gets formed once its worked into the paint. Make sure you do this out of the sun and on a cool paint surface, otherwise your polish/wax may begin to flake off.

    I consistantely read on the forums that TOO MUCH product is NOT a good thing....so i made a commitment to stick to smaller amounts (adding more if i needed) to avoid complications.


    Once again, thanks for the kind words everyone

    Mike, I`m glad some of the DC members were able to steal your PC virginity and you came out with a smile on your face

    Great results my man, and I hope that this is the start of something prosperous for you!
