Oh that sounds perfect. I had thought about taking some polish to it, but I was not sure how it would come out. Excellent, I will give that a whirl. Thanks for the replies gentlemen:righton:

I have Back to Black, I use it on all the black surfaces in the engine compartment. It gives everything a good look, but its not exactly what I am wanting on the exterior parts. The water marks are mainly what I am wanting to eliminate.

Cool, so 2 votes for the Poor Boys stuff:cheers:

I tried searching and did not come up with anything, so here I go. A couple places on my car; the trunk panel, front chin spoiler, are painted in a flat or matte black. Its been not quite a year, and its starting to show water marks and spots where bugs have decided to end their lives. The...

One thing that does irk me is that there are some areas on the car that are flawless. Zero swirls, and it looks just gorgeous. Other areas are a little worse than what I posted. Its those areas that I want to clean up.

Here is a quick cellphone pic of what I am wanting to get rid of. Certain areas have more swirls than others. click for bigger

Man this place is incredible:cheers:

Thats another thing I was wondering about, because when my buddy painted it, he used Dupont paint. I was curious if that had a tendency to be harder than what came from the factory......

It spends a decent amount of time in the garage, it is not my daily driver. And keeping it perfect I know would mean a lifestyle change! I just want to do what I can to insure good, clean looking paint for a long time. I figure anything small that I can do NOW will pay off in years to come. Like...

Man you are everywhere! Actually that did not even cross my mind. I'll do that in the morning. Yet again, thanks!

Thanks for the help Dan.:cheers: Tomorrow I will get some pics of what I am talking about, as I am not quite done detailing the car. What would you use to keep the minor swirls in control?

I bought it about a month ago, and was really digging it the first time I used it. The next time I went to wash my car, I noticed the glue was letting go around the edges. Well last week, the entire thing came apart:confused: I still used it, but its a little disappointing that it fell apart, as...

I do have some XMT #2, and that did not help me either. I think I may give that Menzerna a whirl. Is it too much of a desire to have a black car with zero swirl marks? Or will there always be just a few? I ask because I am awfully obsessive, and if I know that there is a possibility of swirl...

Advanced Swirl Remover I know that there is a newer formula available, but I wanted to see if there was another line other than Pinnacle that might be better. I've used nothing but Pinnacle, but the OCD detailer inside me is whispering " i wonder if theres anything better....."

I bought some ASR and AFP about a year ago to use on my Mustang, and it worked pretty well. Fast forward, and since that day a lot has changed with my car. It got totally repainted about 7 months ago, with a concourse level paint job and the entire car now has a mirror finish. Which really helps...

A couple weeks ago, I heavily detailed my car for a show. Washed it, used some Paintwork Cleansing Lotion, then hit it with XMT 360 and topped it off with Souveran Paste. Oh man, it was shimmering:cheers: I was fully impressed with the 360, though there were still some minor swirls left behind...

"User friendly" does not cover it! I found myself working it into the paint longer than I needed to, my nieces could have helped me! The pad I used was the 6.5" White CCS pad, but then I tried the 5.5" low profile pad that came with the 360 and immediately liked it better. It just seemed easier...

The last two I snapped just as the sun was going down without a flash. As far as the car, I have managed to wreck it twice in as many years, and this last time my paint man decided we needed to go a different direction with the layout. Originally I had stripes on the car, but he advised that if...
