Sweet glad it worked out

Before

After

I don't remember my car being so shinny and the paint so nice. This is with M21 sealant. Will top it off with M26 wax maybe tom or next wk. Ohh and paint is so smooth..

Awesome job. Night and day difference.

As for those pads, I would definitely be requesting a replacement or refund, they look like they disintegrated...

Thanks Jordan. Yeah I checked and my orange one are the only that did. Both 4 and 5.5 which is weird but the whites are OK so it wasn't user error

Thanks for the heads up. I thought it was normal. But hey you all know better than i do. Well contacted amazon, where I bought the Pads from, and they are replacing them for me. Will have to detail the wifes car to test them out.. Lol
