My dad has a 2009 GMC Canyon and this weekend I worked on polishing/waxing. Well I must say the paint looks like craps, most likely how they dry it (cotton towels). Lots of swirls and scratches. It drove/is driving me nuts. I could get them to lighten but not fully go away. Attached are some before and after pics. Sorry about the quality it rained all day and I was stuck in the garage :(
Also here is what I used
Cyclo Polisher
Yellow Pad w/ Poor Boys SSR1 and SSR2 (old style version, pink and purple)
Blue Pad w/ DP Policoat
Hand Wax w/ nattys red paste wax
I must say the paint came out with a very nice gloss just lots of scratches that wouldnt be taken out.
I ordered some wolfgang total scratch remover and some BOGO cobra towels for them to use when drying so they can dump their cotton towels :nomore:
What are some other suggestions?
Overall my dad was thrilled but to me it still didnt look all that good. I guess all that matters is he was happy and there is some protection for winter.
