So I recently went through a 10 hour process on my Supra and it was the first time I used my PC7424 to buff. My car is a 1993 Toyota Supra. The paint had some swirls in it and I wasn`t really happy with my results. Can you guys take a look at the procedure I used and let me know what I can change so it will work better. I did not really get the swirls out I wanted, and I also now have this haze that is all over the car! (Believe these are called holograms?) I thought I wiped the wax off pretty good..
The process..:
Here`s the process I used:
Washed car
Clayed Car
Used PC7424 and buffed the car slowly with a orange cutting pad.. I used the Pinnacle Advanced Swirl Remover. I made sure to go slow so that the product would break down. (The pad was literally black after I was done)
Then used the Pinnacle Advanced Finishing polish with a black pad. I went slow again to break down the polish.
Then I used the white pad and applied Pinnacle Carnuaba wax with the machine and wiped it off.
All in all it came out OK, but didn`t take the swirls out that I wanted to. I got some stuff, but the rear bumper needs more work and so do some of the panels/roof.
Should I have used a more aggresive pad? Different polishes/swirl remover? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
If anyone has any reccomendations of a better step system please let me know, I need to get these holograms out! They are driving me mad!
(I`d post pics but I cant yet).
