Collect new car tomorrow so paintwork should be swirl free and in good conditon.



This is what I plan to do:



1 coat AIO applied / removed by PC



1 coats of SG applied / removed by hand



1 coat of PS21 applied / removed by hand



Is this OK ?



Should I try the PC with the SG or is it best by hand ?

Congrats on the new car!! What are you picking up?



However, don`t assume that you because you are picking up a new car that it will be swirl free. There have been many autopians that have picked up new cars that have had horrendous paint jobs. Just be sure that if it isn`t swirl free to take care of those first.



I would also recommend claying the car to remove any other surface contaminants from transport. Otherwise your plan sounds fine and PC vs hand is a personal preference.



Again, congrats on the new car!

Ditto to what adjulian said about swirls and clay.



I use the PC for applying SG. Helps me get a thin even layer on.

Removal of anything I usually do by hand.

Ok,



If I find some swirls I have some Einzett 1Z which should get rid of them with PC ??

What kind of 1Z do you have? You just want to be sure you are using the appropriate product for the problem, i.e. start with least aggressive product and work to most aggressive product.
