What is the best way to clean the pads?

Spray them down with APC, rub either against a grit guard or work it in with your bare hands. Rinse with the hose until the water runs clean.

Shake/squeeze out excess water, put out to air dry somewhere they won't get dirty.

Thanks. One more question for ya. I am doing very small sections at a time, is it ok if I am not doing the entire car in one shot? There might be days going by before I hit other sections. If the car is dirty will just clean that section off with detailer spray and then polish where needed.

Thats fine just be 100% positive you're polishing a clean surface... the last thing you want to do is pick up grit and then oscillate it all over your paint at 6000 opm.

I always spray the section with detailer spray and wipe it down before using the PC. Figured even if i get light scratches from doing that the PC will take care of those and the exsisting scratches.

I thought I was getting nowhere with trying to detail my car, but realized I needed to go the extra step and use a machine to get most of these scratches out.

Any beginner's advice for me? Thanks!

Which kit did you buy? The kit I saw (SKU B2002) is listed for $329.95 less 10% is $296.10 plus shipping? Did you get another discount?

Show before and after pics if you can... I have the junkman kit, but have not polished my car yet, but I love the product: all purpose cleaner & detail spray...
