That panel looks sweet!
I was previously the same way! My dad always taught me to wash and wax by hand. He was very fussy and has always liked vehicles clean. Thats about it. Then I moved beside Conan777 and my eyes have been opened! I too am now a believer in the machine.
I too just picked up the kit which included the PC & WG TSR 3.0 & FG 3.0. I just got done doing my wife's daily driver, a blue '07 Odyssey. I had to make several passes with the TSR 3.0 to get all the light scratches out. Swirls were mostly gone after the first pass but deeper stuff needed...
I've read that Wolfgang has teamed up with Menzerna to make the Total Swirl Remover 3.0. Does anyone know what level of Menzerna polish the Total Swirl Remover 3.0 would compare to? Thanks, Dave
