    Masking tips?

    After wasted my valuable hand power for hand polishing my TT,
    I finally bought a PC and Pads and stuffs for a proper detailing job.

    One question, what should I mask off for polishing? All the plastic trims and gaps between panel to panel?

    yup, and the trim around your windows. pretty much anything you can see yourself accidentally coming into contact with that you're not looking to polish. badges/emblems are a good idea too.

    The 3M green tape works best.

    yes sir anything you may get polish on that may be tough to remove.

    when you see another detailed car with left over polish and wax its typically on seals/cracks etc.

    yes 3m green would be great!
