those cleaners react specifically to brake/iron particles and allows easier removal.
i wouldn't say they are that aggressive if you follow proper methods/instructions/dilutions

Sometimes, learning how not to be so OCD on a daily drive is good. In fact, it is just practical enough to keep the car easily cleaner than the rest on the road, less swirls/whatever crap than the rest, and just sheets/beads away most waters away.

I remember it saddens me the most back in university time, I kept my car so well but then as you know, there are always "hand itchy" students or out of jealousy that you maintain your ride well, half of my car got scratched badly.

YEa true, i have my car with a long scratch... sad.gif

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Nov 9 2014, 12:51 AM)
gah, not sure if our recent rain is dirtier/more polluted, or carpro reload suck balls on handling water spots, but that's how it is and water spots are sticking on my car a LOT compared to megs UQX/Sonax BSD toppers.

the beading is very uneven now however sheeting is still decent.

if i use tissue etc to UQD it, it feels very rough as if i'm grinding sandpaper on my clear coat and upon inspection, can see a THICK layer of pitch black sand'ish dirt on the tissue  rclxub.gif

I guess the rain is dirty this few days,...

Sorry may bad.. Flex PE14 is rotary.. Flex 3401 is DA

In terms of weight and vibration wise PE14 better than my makita rotary (this is my personal reference ya). But looking at cutting wise makita still champion..

But yesterday the owner show me using Flex 3401 DA as paint correction and Makita rotary for finishing.. And I can say that the end result made my jaw dropped.  shocking.gif

Anyway, to master rotary need more time than DA. And I still learning using rotary but at the same time I need DA.. Hahaha  icon_rolleyes.gif
