Some people argue that PrepSol/etc. is awfully harsh for non-bodyshop uses like that. Not that *I* have ever had a problem with such solvents and I used them frequently for stuff that didn't require lubricity.
BTW, I was just reading another thread and it got me wondering, which polisher are you using these days?
No worries, you're not coming across as argumentative at all.
First, I'd get that respray redone if it were mine, I simply wouldn't live with it. But hey...that's just me and I'm told I can be unreasonable about some things
In this case, the Prep Wash *might* help if you can use it in a touchless manner if you spray it on and then spray on, say...a deionized water rinse (which you could then blow off with compressed air).
But unless you're gonna go through all that (i.e., if you're gonna be touching that stupid-soft paint anyhow), then I'd rather have the lubricity of #34 helping out when removing (potentially abrasive) polish residue.
I do sympathize with your plight...not being able to rub with even a soft MF (have you tried super-plush high-end ones?) would be a huge factor!
Same here. It would drive me *insane* to live with a paint job that soft. I'd either respray it, or get rid of the car. I simply can not live with marred paint.
Some of the new DIY car painting systems look *very* interesting. When we get settled down in our new house (we're moving this week), I'm gonna get some car parts from the salvage yard and practice doing some DIY paintiing. It looks to be surprisingly affordable, really. It might be worth looking in to.
