How well do these work? Any problems with micromarring? Does anyone use them? I picked some up and just want to be sure they will be okay. I bought the Cobra 6.5 inch ones from autogeek to use with a blue pad.

Thanks

 

i did a bmw with one and never used them again!! more marring was introduced IME

 

Anyone else get any results like this?

 

I've never used it but don't really see where they'd be helpful on the finish. Most waxes, if applied correctly, come off effortlessly with a microfiber towel by hand.

 

I have always wondered what the purpose of these are. The only place that wax can be difficult to pull off is in the nooks and cranies, and these can't even get into those spots. I know that they are pointless now if Moe is not big on them.

 

Well the problem is for my and my friend, we don't get to spend too much time on the cars, let alone polish them. After I polished my car the JetSeal was very easy to apply and remove because the surface was so smooth. My friend and I just put JetSeal on a G35 that was very swirled and it was much harder to remove. The only point of getting these was just to save some time.

 

I still have several unused bonnets in the bag. I got them for buffing off stubborn carnubas, but after reading in several forums about the unpredictable results, I have not used them. I quit using the wax that was so hard to get off and as stated earlier, most of the newer finishes buff off by hand, so it's almost not worth the risk of using the bonnets.

 

I've used them before and I actually like them. They aren't necessary, but they do make for quick work of removing the wax.

I've never had an issue with them micromarring though. What speed are you using? When I use mine, I don't use any pressure, just buff off the wax. Mine are the same material that my wax removal microfibers are made of, so I don't see the difference using the PC with the bonnets, or removing by hand. I still have to go over and get the nooks and crannies, but I have had good luck with them.

I would NOT use these simply to get off of stubborn wax. Just to buff off the easy.

I haven't had any issues yet. Just getting them today I think and just looking at some info. I am just trying to make the process as easy as possible. I was thinking about using my Flex on like 2.5-3 with as little pressure as possible?

 

For removing LSP, I will use the microfiber bonnet on top of a fairly firm pad (like an LC Yellow) and I will buff at a 5 or 6 to help buff to a high gloss with basically just the weight of the machine and no more.

OK cool. Thanks

 

Not a bad idea D. But after hours of polishing, I enjoy the silence of waxing by hand

 

I completely understand that on some cars!
