This is my 1st time using a PC but about 3 weeks ago I had time to give it a try and get rid of the swirls and scratches on my car. This is my 2004 Dodge SRT-4 currently has about 52K miles on it. This car sits outside all year round and has seen a few winters already. Well let me know what you think. Here is the process I used thanks to rydawg (sp?) for his help:



Meguiars wash

Meguiars Clay bar

Presta UCCL

Zaino PC

Zaino Z6 wipedown

Zaino Z5 w/Zaino FX

Zaino Z8 wipedown



Used LC CCS pads



All drying and cleaning done with microfiber towels



Here are some before and after shots:

Never used a PC before, i have done plenty of reading on here and i practiced on my car till i figure out the amount of material, speed and hand movement.



1st 2 pictures were taken with my camera phone but the rest where with my Fuji Finepix 6MP camera.

Looks great. I will be ordering a PC soon. However, I am a bit worried about causing buffer trails. Did you have any problems?

I did not have any problem with buffer trials. PC is really easy to use, i can`t see how someone could screw up the paint unless they were doing it on purpose or just don`t give a damn.
