another polish

[imported_tuffluck]

i have my 7424, and last october i used #83 with a cutting pad, #9 with a medium pad, and then followed with nxt on a polishing pad (and then #16 later). i can see a few swirls in my dark blue car again and want to revitalize the finish. i have #83, #9, and menzerna IP that i can use (although obviously i won`t use them all) as abrasives.



i am thinking to use a polishing pad and menzerna, and then following up with nxt/16, but i`ve been advised to do #83 with the polishing pad as well. i just want to do what looks best and what will keep the swirls away for another good paint year :) let me know your opinions! thanks. and btw, the swirls now are not that bad, just pretty slight (visible, too).

If your swirls aren`t that bad ( not like they were the last time ) you could just use the IP with a polishing pad . Then just finish with NXT & #16

yeah, that`s what i was thinking. IP is a better choice than the meguiar`s stuff? should i go 2 coats of nxt and 2 coats of 16, or will one of each suffice?

I would guess the #9 hid the swirls and did not remove them

[SVR]

Yeah #9 just fills them

What about using the Menzerna Final Polish II after using #9? Then just use your favorite sealant or carnuba.

so i`m using the IP on a finishing pad and it seems to be leaving a haze. any guesses as to why or how to remedy this?
