Rupes foam pads Vs Megs microfiber

<< < (2/2)

ChrisGT:
Every car will react slightly differently to different polish and pads etc, they always have different depths too  :smiley:

I've just been working on an 2014 audi and the paint was generally about 110-130 microns apart from the lower front wings and front doors where it was down to around 80 to 90 microns, lowest point was 77 microns, had I attacked that with microfiber pads and cutting compound, even with a DA I would risk going through the top coat. Generally anything less than 80 you need to be careful.  :happy2:

Both a good, I use megs on softer paint and rupes on harder paint. Rupes have to be used on a rupes unfortunately and the coarser the pad the less product you put on blue eg only need 2 pea size drops on it. Megs are easier to work with but because they're microfibre do take a lot of energy to keep cleaning etc
