I "think" the orbital did the job. I used it mainly to spread the product evenly and quickly. I do want to get DA but it's not in the budget right now. We are now under overcast skies but I could tell the paint was much cleaner than before. Hopefully under direct light it will be okay. It looks...
I am going to go ahead and get an orbital for now. This who thing is driving me nuts. It's not going to happen by hand obviously. I need to be able to produce enough fast rotation to get these marks out. My hand can't . I have tried everything. I think the swirls that I am seeing might be from...
That's why i have not picked up an orbital yet. I DO plan on getting a DA within the next few months. Since my car is new/used I am sure some of the swirl and scratches started why before I purchased my car but I am only starting to notice them since we have finally started to have nice sunny...
I know the auto zone up the street from me has ultimate polish as I was about to buy it today but thought I would get some feedback before doing so. I have NXT already . I think it's a great wax. My reason for getting Ultimate Polish was to remove swirls and to enhance dark paint color. My Scion...
too add: is it possible that to much product is getting on my MF towel during removal? I flip sides a lot but not towels. It's night time here I was down in condo garage . I decided to test my idea. I did notice big streaks but when I used my supremene shine. They would not go away. I grabbed...
okay, maybe that is the problem. I had been using a hard amount of pressure on both applying and wiping off. If I under correctly I can remove most surface scratches and swirls by lightly rubbing a small amount of UC until the film is clear then wipe off using light pressure with MF towel...
I went back in my garage and tried small area of UC and the other small area Scratch-X. I used my camera to try to capture a swirl or streak but it do not come out right. I will read the article on it and try again.
With a product like UC or Scratch X what's the proper by hand method ? I...
no I washed them with woolite in warm wash/ warm rinse. I tried with two fresh MF towels but it's still doing it. I read somewhere ( i can't remember if it was here of the meguiar's forum ) to use the quick detailer if you are getting streaks and smudges which I did. It's just a haze over of the...
yes . I have tried foam pads and terry pads. The only thing I have not tried is applying with a mircofiber towel. Is it possible that my towels got to dirty ?
Hello - This is my first post and sorry it's long one
I recently purchased a 2005 Scion XB. After having the car for a month I noticed a lot of scratches I wanted to get out. I started with a 3m scratch remover but did not do what I wanted it to. Next I tried Ultimate Compound. Being very...
