today, i heard from this guy that you cant use a pc on black cars and apparently it leaves swirl marks for sure, and i have to get 3M black polish for black and red just by hand or some crap... 
anyone heard of this stuff? and they are the only ones who make it?

He still has some very tiny swirls in his paint...do I just need to work longer and add more polish? | |

Dude did you restore that car yourself?
Do you hang at turbobuicks.com or one of the other Turbo Regal/Grand National Sites? | |

Polishes made to break down with the heat of rotary will not work as effectively with a PC because it doesn't produce that kind of heat. | |
