Klasse seems so easy to use by hand . I was just wondering if anybody else was using the Porter Cable to apply? Does it make it any easier or increase the shine?

 

I apply Klasse AIO with my porter cable and wipe off by hand then i apply Klasse SG by hand and buff off with my PC


here's a good link

good reply bass...

my three cents (more than you wanted to know!):
the general thinking is that a machine is needed for polishing, but not for protection.
that said, i use mine for both sometimes and for polishing only other times. depends on how i feel at the time! more often with the machine for everything than not though!
i have even been using the machine lately for carnubas- kinda old fashioned-
if you are interested, to do this- you have to drop the carnuba out of its container so you can rub it on the pad.

 

Thanks Bass

 

I apply both AIO and SG by hand on the S2000. I think it is faster and the paint shines great with no need for buffing action. I do use the PC on my bigger vehicles like the truck and 4 runner but the porsche and S seem just fine without it.

I apply by machine and wipe off with either MF towel..

when I'm lazy.. I remove with my MF bonnet..

JMHO

 

Both on/off by hand

 

I use the PC for everything except the final Carnuba layer. The reasoning is 1) you will get better (i.e. more assured) coverage with the PC and 2) You can ensure thinner coats using the PC.

I have always ahad a problem with coverage and and thickness of coats that have gone away since using the PC
