    My fear is always someone trying a suggestion thinking it’s easy and then causing very expensive damage to their cars. Thats the only reason why I said it was bad advice. You are correct likely a necessity but probably shouldn’t be done by the untrained.

    Wet sanding is not for the novice, ask me how I know haha.

    Haha I gotcha. Seems like in detailing questions, I see more bad advice than anything. Like they say a small bit of knowledge about something can be worse than no knowledge. There is some good advice out there. Another thing that is annoying which isn't as common here, but fan boys of certain product companies act like no one else should even be in business. I see that mostly on GM truck forums I used to frequent. But you are right, tons of bad advice out there than can end in someone really causing some damage to their paint!

    I use these and they work very well together. A well maintained and waxed front end makes removal much easier.
