Least abrasive material

[chevchenko]

Has anyone tried Meg’s DA micro fiber correcting system on non-factory paint?
How about Meg 105-205 on non-factory paint? If I wanted to use something a bit less abrasive on non-factory paint, what would I use? What about Wolfgang swirl remover? How abrasive is it in comparison to Meg’s DA or Megs 105-205? I will be using a DA. Thanks in advance!

Different technology and less abrasive than 105 IME. Test in an incompicuous arrea first.

Yes.

Test first and inspect your results. Make sure the system isn't leaving micro-marring also called DA Haze or Tick Marks.

These two cars were buffed out using the Megs DA System, the Cadillac is single stage paint and the Challenger was also a single stage re-paint.

Now READ the words below carefully, don't just SCAN or you'll miss what made the below buff-out unique...

If you look closely, the paint on the passenger side fender is clear and glossy, that's because it was repainted with a basecoat/clearcoat system, the rest of the car has an older single stage paint that has dulled from oxidation and lack of any regular maintenance.

One of my goals was to maximize the gloss and clarity of the single stage paint surrounding the passenger fender so the car would have a uniform, clear, high gloss appearance.

I'll try to do the write-up for this car in the near future, this belonged to the Caddy King and I've heard he's since sold it.
