Hi guys I finally registered here. Bought a beautiful 04 mystic chrome cobra 3 months ago with 5500 miles. I guess the last owner didn't really detail the car.
I currently have a Griots Garage Orbital like the PC and have been using
meguiars swirl remover, glaze and recently bought the
NXT ... stuff doesn't last long true, but goes on and off very easy.
So I did the usual clay, swirl remover with orange pad (from griots) followed with the glaze and NXT ... On the hood roof trunk i used nxt waited till the next day and put a coat of griots carnauba paste (which from what I read here is the same as natty's blue?)
Well
UNFORTUNATELY I have water spots still on the paint
Today I tried 3M Compound with orange pad (talk about DUST
: I started with some quick detailer on the pad and then applied the compound on the pad, put machine on 2 to spread the product then to 5 ... went over the trunka lot of times slowly, and I can tell they're wanting to go away, but the marks are still there.
What am I doing wrong here? Is the machine just not strong enough and not cutting ? Wrong pad? Maybe I am not working the product all the way???? I noticed a lot of dust and its starting to get dry, so removed it and did it again 3 times ... Still can see the SPOTS under light
This is really bothering me because I everytime I
my car I can see them
:
I am trying to avoid taking the car somewhere to be done with a rotary ....
I could not get the camera to capture the marks I see with my eyes, but I guess these two pics of the trunk area (after I tried the 3m compound with PC) give an idea - the only way i see these marks are at an angle.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
