Hello all, Im officially addicted to having my car look it`s best and Im finally going to order myself a Porter Cable. http://www.topoftheline.com/tolae/porcabpolpac.html Looks like an awesome package to start with. Where I need help is with the swirl remover polish. Ive been reading and looking up the best I can but it seems like everyone has their own good and bad experiences. My swirls are pretty light to moderate on my car. I need peoples opinions on which polish to choose....Optimum, Menzerna, Poorboys SSR`s, any other opinions are welcome. Please help me find the right polish :work: im so sick of not knowing what products will actually work for me. I want my swirls gone!! :dance Thanks to all those who reply :clap: Pictures will be greatly appreciated if you have any before/afters of your results with the polish you reccomend. THanks again!!!

Poorboy`s is a good recommendation due to its user-friendliness. SSR 2.5 and SSR 1.



Optimum also seems to be a good choice, but I haven`t gotten to use it yet.



Another good PC kit is here: http://www.autogeek.net/hk7424.html

SMR`s..I have my most favorable results with Megs 80, SSR 2.0, and Optimum Polish. All for light swirling problems.....

Before http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a304/exceldetail/before_hood.jpg

After http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a304/exceldetail/after_hood2.jpg

This was SSR 2.5, 2.0, pre VM, and Opt SW...

:welcome to Autopia Joshua312!



TOL is an excellent vendor, I always enjoy dealing with Irene. (Unfortunately I buy tools, towels and hardware from her and haven’t used the chemical lines she sells so I can’t help you there.)



There are many ways to achieve what you’re looking for. You’ll fine good advice here and if you also search old threads there’s a wealth of info.





Have fun,

PC.
