Hello guys,



Sent my car for servicing and the dealer washed the car dispite the fact that I told them "No Washing". As a result there are swirls all over the car.



I plan to use the following products with an orbit polisher.



1) Meguiars Deep crystal system step 1

2) Meguiars Deep crystal system step 2

3) Meguiars #16 paste wax



Any comments on the above combo? Is #16 a good choice?



Thanks :)

Yeah, the #16 is a good choice, but I dunno about the Deep Crystal. Make sure it actually has abrasives in it (seem to recall it`s nonabrasive, but I could very well be wrong on that). If *I* were gonna fix it with a Meg`s product, I`d probably use #80 Speed Glaze and then put the #16 over it.

I`m going to tout 3M`s PI-III MG...stuff is absolutely amazing. Perhaps partly because I was so horribly dissapointed with SMR, but I found the MG to do a wonderful job with a PC on 4-5-5 (apply with 4 and pressure, bump to 5 w/light pressure, remain on 5 with no pressure for product pickup).



And as always, top with #16.

Yeah, the 05397 is *my* go-to product in the 3M line too. I bump the PC up to 6 with it, though.
