eduhilera- Not sure what products you have available there. I like the Autopia Block/Glide clay. For swirls, I think you`re gonna need something stronger than the ScratchX, maybe DACP or at least 3M PI-III MG (pn 05937). For sealants, you can`t go wrong with AIO/SG with or without a wax topper, or maybe Meg`s #20. for durablility I top with Collinite, for looks I use Souveran or P21S, for something in between I use Meg`s #16.

I second what most of Accumulator said.



I would do:



1) Clay Magic or Mother`s for clay that you can get locally (although I have seen the Autopia and it`s really nice...might get one myself).



2) DACP definitely for heavy swirls



3) AIO/SG, AIO/UPP, or #20 by itself. I personally think the AIO/SG is the most durable, but it`s probably the most work of the 3.
