    Black CTS-V With Micro Swirls

    I would go straight to orange pad and total swirl remover after clay for a test section first. If that works it is still very gentle and made just for that purpose. If that proves ineffective then go for the Sonax since you said you wanted to use what you have on hand first.

    About to pull the trigger on a Rupes 15 but.....

    The Rupes is super smooth and quiet and very dependable. The threads of a machine needing repair normally have a hidden simple repair that gets fixed and then we don't hear about the easy fix.
