Thread: DIY Paint Protection Kit

  1. Default

    Dan with those photos you've posted. Did apply the epic by hand or machine? The pattern just looks very uniform as if done by a machine.
    Thanks for the info also.

    Yeah, fully done by hand.

    Needless to say, I was pretty tired afterwards... needed a beer

    Placed my order and looking forward to doing this

    Joel or Dan would you recommend doing it by hand or machine for someone inexperienced like me?

    Hi Chris,

    Got your order thanks mate. If you already have the pads and machine then I'd receommend using it. It will make the job a lot easier and quicker and you'll be able to spread the Epic thinner much easier.

    If you don't have the equipment then you'll still have no problems by hand. Just use the Amigo like you would any polish and make sure you put the Epic as thin as possible.

    You'll know if you did the first layer too thick because it will be a PITA to buff off, but this is easy fixed because all you do is give the first layer a light buff, don't worry about any residue that is stuck. Just leave it there and apply the second layer over the top of it. And with the second layer you'll know to go thinner!

    I'll be allocating some of the samples to members of this forum. You're first on the list.

    Well i just washed my car and used the clay bar with Glide and then used the Amigo to give it polish.

    Just about to start with the Epica and I must say even now it looks really really good.

    Damn those paint chips, they really spoil it. (Damn F3)

    I always used to use Meguiars, but this seems to be easier and better.

    Thanks Joel great products.

    Thanks Damo. I'm a big fan of freshly detailed red. I bet it looks special
