    [quote=”Papipab” post=19664]Looks Good. How did you prep the blends?[/quote]thanks. what i like to do is go over my blend area with 1000 grit, not to slick it up but mainly to clean it well. then follow with light presure, a carbo red scotch pad with some 3m scuff it paste. then we hit the car with a brush and wash it. well part of it. ok, so we mist the dang thang.

    Have you ever used the Presta paste? It is a little faster/more aggressive than the 3M paste (but not so aggressive that clear won’t fill in the scratches…probably equivalent to 800 or finer). Only issue I have with it, is that it is a little sticky, so you need to make sure you wash it off well afterward.

    Yup, I just dumped the 3m for the Presta Scuff Stuff.
    Trust me it works a lot better then the expensive ass 3m crap.

    I love using scuff stuff on bumpers but I always use the grey pad. Guess I should try the red pad but isnt that like 320-400 grit?

Guess I should try the red pad but isnt that like 320-400 grit?[/quote]i’m sure it is, but i use carbo pads, and they don’t seem as agressive as the 3m, but i don’t apply a lot of presure, and the only bumpers is scuff is am one’s dry.

    i should be getin to use some presta stuff.
