light swirls and 2 moderate swirl

**bonky** · 05-04-2010, 11:04 AM

Hi,

I am new to this forum. I am trying to find the best product to use for my car. The car is just about 1 year old and I have light swirling mainly on the hood and I have 2 spots on the hood that has moderate swirl marks. I guess its more like scratches. I am planning to pick up a porter 7424xp and was considering the XMT kit for light swirling but I am a little bit hesitant afer reading some mixed reviews. I am looking for something not too abrasive since its a new car. I was wondering what you guys think I should do. I will be looking forward to learning from you all. Thanks in advance!

thanks for the fast reply. So after the polish is done to remove the swirls, what would you guys recommend for the wax and sealing portion? Or would a sealant be sufficient after the polish is complete?

No it is polish, seal, wax .... If you use BFWD you want need to top the sealant with wax.

gotcha....

Is it always the polish seal and wax sequence? Can you add another layer of sealant so the wax last longer?

You guys think its worth trying swirl x first?
