Hmmm after catching the PC bug, I decided to do my dad`s neglected `98 Corolla, it has never been waxed or detailed in 5 years and only washed occassionally, so I had to call out the heavy duty stuff.



1. Wash with Blue Coral High Foam

2. PC with 3M P-IT III RC 05933 with LC 7" flat yellow foam 5 setting

3. Waxed with Meg`s Cleaner Wax(Still had a bottle laying around !) with LC 7" flat white foam



All swirl marks were out with just 2 passes, but heavy scratches remain. The 3M stuff leaves alot of dust residue that I don`t usually see with Meg`s polishes. I had gotten a bottle on eBay just for this kind of situation, this is the stuff that Accumlator always praises about and I agree with him that it should be categorized as a medium polish rather as a rubbing compound.

When did a cleaner wax become the " the heavy stuff" :p



Either way, where are the whole shots?
