I`ve got some very minor swirls on my `94 black car. The car has been wetsanded before and the paint is very thin, but for 10 year old paint it is smooth as glass and in very good condition. I plan on starting with the least abrasive swirl cutter I have and a mild cutting pad with a PC. I also have a swirl remover for dark cars with filler that I was going to try after the cutting was finished with a finishing pad.
I have a few questions. Will finishing polishes or Klasse AIO end up removing any good the swirl remover did with fillers and, if so, is this step even worth the effort?
I`ve got 3M Perfect-It III Finishing Glaze and also a very nice non-abrasive finishing polish. In what order should a finishing glaze and a finishing polish be applied, or are they essentially the same thing?
I have some gaps or questions in my process so far as well, most as to what to apply a product with. My plan so far:
Wash
Clay
Wash
Spray with 50/50 Alcohol & Water
Swirl Cut w/Mild Cutting Pad
Swirl Remove w/Finishing Pad
Finshing Glaze w/FINISHING PAD or MF POLISHING BONNET <----------- SWAP ?
Finishing Polish w/FINISHING PAD or MF POLISHING BONNET <----------- SWAP ?
Spray with 50/50 Alcohol & Water
Klasse AIO w/TERRY or MF ?
Klasse SG w/TERRY or MF ?
Pinnacle Souveran Paste w/HAND or FINISHING PAD or MF FINISHING BONNET ?
Pinnacle Carnuba Spray w/FINISHING PAD or MF FINISHING BONNET ?
One last question, what`s the best way to remove the souveran paste and the carnuba spray? I was planning on using a MF finishing bonnet with the PC or would a simply MF towel wipe have the same effect?
