I had my car get serviced for a machine glaze and wax because of a lot of water spots it had. I also wanted a little more shine. After around a week and a half I started noticing that there has been a lot of hollograms from the machine where it rotated on, which is basically all of the car.The wax covered it for a few days maybe a week or two, but now when the car is in the sun, my car looks awful it's really deppressing. It's a black car. What should I do to take the holograms out?? Any of the polish guru's that cou;d help me?



Please let me know the steps to take to make my car back to normal!! Please, and if so the list of products I need to buy!!



Where can I buy a kit which would include everything for a full polish, for every kind of scratches, swirls, holograms, contamination, to revive the paint everything. I just want to buy a kit that would include everything, so I don't have to buy anything else. Also another kit, which would include the machine and all the pads for all the applications?



Thanks Guys!
 
welcome to the forum :wavey



First off, you have been hacked by a detailer who knew nothing of what they are trying to do.



As far as correction read through the forums to gather info on what products to use and how to use them.



A starter kit will probably be around $300, depending on if you have any of the products yet.



also, dont expect perfect result at first. There is a ton of info on here, which is were i learned most of everything i know.

Thanks for the input. Can you refer me to a starter kit which would include all the products. I have nothing so far. Just a Meguiars gold class wax.
 
sorry to see that it happened to you. Seeing as how you are new to the world of polishing and paint correction take a few minutes to read around the forum.



Depending on your budget i would start off with:



Starter Kit



This has everything you need to tackle the job on your car.



In your pad selection area i would go:



Orange

Green

Blue

Black



the kit is $275 and Phil is a stand up guy, sweet customer service and fast shipping.

Thanks! This would be a good way to start. Also, do you think I would need clay . I've heard that clay is very good to use before detailing your car. Also, what is compounding for?
 
or get some one by referral off autopia and have them detail your car and ask if you can watch and learn. but it might cost more if you watch LOL
 
You dont happen to live in TX do you?



Cause I saw a 335i in the parking lot about two weeks ago that looked like this

Holly ****! Now that's a hack job.



I've seen that stuff too. What do you guys do . . . leave a card with a note on it or what LoL.
 
I got a little quote flyer with my info and just leave a quote, but Im not even sure how you mes it up that bad? Maybe the guy bought a 6k rpm angle grinder and just put a wool pad on it

Is your car jet black or metallic?



If jet black, have one of the great detailers in the area detail it and afterwards you can just maintain it. However you will need to learn to live with swirls with that color. :(

Heh, damn that looks bad. It almost looks like a subtle 'flaming' look nouveau-retro hot rodders seek out for their paint jobs.



On a side note, I've come to know autopia while owning a white mazda protege5. I now own a dark green miata (emerald green mica). Man, white spoiled me with its ability to conceal. I have a project ahead of me with swirls now. .
