What was your process and products? In particular, swirls. I`m kinda swirl focused right now (look for my posts).:(

this truck is fairly new, and wasnt to bad with swirls, the hood had some but they were taken out easily. i just used 3M rubbing compound for scratches/swirls, it works great and id recomend it for someone looking to get rid of swirls that arent to deep. not that i`m any kind of expert but hey if it works it works
for the process i washed/dryed
clayed
3m rubbign compound

I am in the same boat as you Godfather. I need a PC badly, after a day of work, i can work no more.

That requires $$$. Right now I would have to debate between a PC or an electric fan setup for my car, allthough im leaning towards the PC.
