Hello detailing enthusiast!
I own a 1997 911/993 Porsche Gemballa it has had a second Black paint job that is fair to mid-land and does polish out pretty good. I can`t really color-sand the paint because I know it is thin in some spots. The car sits outside covered while I`m at work, I don`t own a garage. I only take the car out on the weekends.
Now, I have this thing, I guess it`s called: "maring" where the wind blows the car cover when it is windy outside, leaving mark on the Porsche, any suggestions on how I could get rid of this by hand and not a machine???? I need to know a good step-by-step process that works and what paint cleaner/polish I should use. I have got my feet wet on this site and read alot but need more answers about polishes and such.
The vehicle doesn`t really have any oxidation through the paint only very light swirl marks. So, what I am am interested in doing is bring the car up to where it can look it`s best. I just bought the Porter/Cable polisher but am kind of apprehensive about using it as of yet without practice (don`t want to burn paint.) and would prefer doing it by hand right now if I can. Advise welcomed!
