Need serious help removing swirls

[ratedrookie]

This is my second attempt to remove the swirls from my paint and I am very frustrated to say the least. I tried several methods and spent several hours and got nowhere. Here is what I am using



PC 7424

Megs Clay Bar

Poorboys SSR2.5, SSR1

Orange and White Pads

Cobra microfiber towels



Now here is a list of what I have tried with no success:



SSR 1 w/White Pad and PC speed 4-5

SSR 1 w/White Pad and PC speed 5-6

SSR 1 w/Orange Pad and PC speed 4-5

SSR 1 w/Orange Pad and PC speed 5-6



SSR 2.5 w/White Pad and PC speed 4-5

SSR 2.5 w/White Pad and PC speed 5-6

SSR 2.5 w/Orange Pad and PC speed 4-5

SSR 2.5 w/Orange Pad and PC speed 5-6



I have tried using less product and more product and usually work in sections of about 1.5 x 1.5 to 2 x 2. I have also tried applying more and less pressure on the PC.



I do have plenty of swirls, but they are no worse than some of the examples I have seen on these boards and people seem to have great success removing them.



So if anyone cares to send some info my way, any help and/or suggestions are greatly appreciated. (Should be noted this is a black car with GM paint)

Might have to try a pad with a little more cut to it.

how old car and what type of car? what color?



Don't be afraid of ssr3 - do you have any? With the pc you may need it.



Where do you live?

He said it was a Black GM

Yeah Black Pontiac. I don't have SSR 3, but like I said I've seen pictures on this forum of cars with very similar swirls and their results are outstanding with SSR 2.5. Isn't SSR 3 for heavier swirls? Mine are small, light swirls, but I have plenty of them.
