im giving in guys.....im buying a PC kit with that comes with the orange and white pads...got a question though.....



my cars have the typical swirls that come with everyday washig etc...i just purchased zaino claybar,z5,z2,zfx,z6 and the zaino car wash....when i get back from my deployment in the next few weeks i plan on giving the cars the full treatment. BUT i want to make sure i have little to no swirls left and ive been told that even with a PC the z5 wont take care of it...so, what would be the best swirl remover to use with a PC and a orange pad before the zaino?



i know they make zpc but is there something better? price isnt really a concern....
 
zpc is a very good polish but it might be too mild to deal with your swirls imo i would get 2 polishes to make sure u r ok



menzerna super intensive polish and menzerna po106ff



intense polish will remove swirls 106 will bring the paint to a incredible shine



www.detailersdomain.com has both



BTW merry christmas and thank you
 
menzerna SIP, then 106ff, then your Zaino lineup...should come out amazing...



SIP on the orange pad, speed 6 on the PC

106ff on the white pad, speed 6 on the PC



(sorry, I dont know any other speed on the PC, the rest are pretty much useless to me)

sip is moderately aggresive but finishes off with little or no haze

I noticed...weird, great minds think alike...lol



you might be good to go with two steps of 106ff on orange, or one step with orange, and one with white...give it a go and see when you are satisfied...

u can use 106ff with a orange pad but depending on condition of paint it might not work as u want it too. U can always try numerous applications





z5 is not used with a white pad I apply zaino via hand





dont worry about taking too much CC off a pc is not that abrasive you can not ruin your with a pc.

ok now this is getting bad :buffing:
 
If his swirls are as minimal as he says, shouldn't he start with the IP on a white pad? I admit I'm newer to polishing but I've always understood it's better to start with something less aggressive and work your way up as needed. So if that holds true, wouldn't IP on a white pad be the way to start? If that's not doing the trick then step up to an orange pad?

It's best to start with the least abrasive methods. The nice thing about the orange pad is that sometimes you can use a finer finishing polish like ZPC or FP2 and one step it because the pad finishes down so well. If that isn't working then try a more aggressive polish.

Gotcha. Just to help educate myself some more, I know you want to start with least abrasive methods, as stated in my original post, so isn't a white pad less aggressive than an orange pad? It still seems like IP on a white pad is still the least aggressive way to start.
 
What kind of car? What color? Just maybe something like opti/white would work out before going to a bigger gun like SIP/orange.
