I`ve recently had problems with hazing on single stage paint. It seems that single stage doesn`t work too well with Poorboys polishes. Is there any truth in that, or has the paint I`ve been working on been crap? I`ve been banging me head against the wall trying to figure out why this happens! :wall
Please, I need some quick replies here.

SS is usually softer than CC and your pad might gum up. Try switching to a less agressive polish and see if there is a difference.

Scuba,
I had better luck with Meguiar`s 80 series on SS paint, particuraly #80. Give it a try.

Yeah, some ss is very soft. Gotta work with milder products than normal and just work `em longer. Swapping pads instead of just cleaning them can be a good idea too. I`ve had ss that was so soft I had to work it with Griot`s Machine Polish #3, which isn`t any stronger than stuff like Menzerna FP (maybe even milder). #80 *is* a nice product for ss, if it isn`t (initially) too abrasive.

Maybe I`ll try my Meguiars #83 of the swirl free polish (I can`t remember the number).
Thanks guys! :)

#82 would be a better choice than #83 for a true polish, #80 will add lube to the process.

#82 is what I used. You should see the oxidation I removed with it though. :D Look for my post in a couple hours on a MX-3.
