Thanks for the tip! I did exactly that earlier today and it worked perfectly.

Micro-Restore gets my vote

I was thinking of doing that but too scared of getting through the clear coat

Thanks. What's the best way to get rid of this dust besides washing after every section?

Thanks. Another question... I was doing 6 M105 passes for each section and following with 6 M205 passes, which ended up removing almost all swirls on the hood. There are still a few here and there though. So, how many more can I safely do before going through the clear coat? It's a 4-month old...

it was a brand new pad

As I was working on the hood earlier today (was my second time working with a PC), I noticed a white powder immediately after turning the PC on. Is that clear coat or the M105/M205 combo turns into powder as soon as one starts working with it? Thanks

Thanks. Yes, my nail does feel the scratch, just barely but still... I'll try P21S Paintwork Cleanser and maybe M205 first just to make sure that it's not a paint transfer

I've been using Meguiar's X3002 Microfiber Wash Mitt with great success Meguiars Microfiber Wash Mitt

one more up close if this helps

Yes, I can feel it with my fingernail.

Is it? It looks much whiter in the pics than it really is (due to the flash probably). At first the scratch was rather white, but then when I ran my finger over it, it got darker.

Hi everyone! I've been following this forum for quite some time and finally have a rather unfortunate reason to post.... So, I have a black Acura MDX that I bought in July. As this was my first black car, I didn't know that going to a regular car wash was a bad idea. I started noticing many...
