    Heaviest cut with PC

    What is the heaviest cutting product you would use with a PC? My mom has a white Toyota Avalon with a LOT of really old water marks (they dont feel etched in). Have tried SSR 2.5 to no avail. Would Megs #2 Fine Cut Cleaner be too heavy? How heavy is DACP in comparison to Fine Cut #2)
