which is more aggressive, meguiars 83 or pinnacle #3 or #4?


reason i ask is that my vehicle, vw, has horrendous swirls that 83 is working on, but not taking out after 4 passes.....
 
I have a vw that I just purchased used. It also had very bad swirls, I used XMT #4 with a little pressure using the PC. I would say 95% came out but I still have a little work to do. I then followed with XMT #3, XMT 360 and finally Collinte 845. Sorry to not answer directly but XMT #4 seemed to work pretty good on my car.
 
If memory serves, 83 DACP measures around a six in abrasiveness. Thus XMT 3 is probably quite similar and 4 a little more abrasive. The XMT's dont dust as much which is a real plus.
 
so, assuming the 83 was used properly, the xmt series will work "better" at the hard swirls....

what pads, orange or yellow?
 
XMT 4 is some pretty heavy duty stuff! I would probs try a couple passes with a 6" yellow cutting pad. If that doesn't take it out then I might switch to Menzerna, or maybe Optimum Hyper Compound.
 
thanks for the chart, i love it.....


in fact, ive been looking for something like that and have probably missed it many times in searching....


i think i will give the pinnacle system a try, and finish with some WG sealer, and liquid souveran
