inspecting for swirls

[chip douglas]

Hey all,

I'd like to know, when you inspect the finish for swirls :

a) Do you do it under bright sunlight only ?

b) Do you wipe off any excess filler oil, after polishing, to *make sure* some swirling isn't hidden instead of removed ?

Best...

a) I use two, 500 watt halogen lights mounted on a tripod. I can usually see more with these than the sun. In fact, if you don't want to see absolutely everything ... don't turn them on!

b) I have been using Poorboys SSR polishes and they do not contain oils.

I like to use a 500 watt halogen light as well as natural sunlight.

If I am trying to make absolute certain that all marring is gone I like to use AIO or PP on that section prioe to inspecton.

I don't really like using a isopropyl wipedown, just me.
