Newbie with queries!

Hi all,



Newb to detailing, and I have a quick query. I have some minor swirls and defects in my paintwork and purchased some Autoglym Super Resin Polish to try to remedy. However, i was then recommended to buy their Ultra Deep Gloss Shine as that would be appropriate. So, having had a bash with both - neither seemed to make a difference!



Autopia to the rescue I hope!



(i) Which product is the more abrasive?

(ii) at which point am I 'cutting' the paintwork, on application or removal?



I really just want to know where I should be putting in the elbow grease!



Many thanks indeed. If it has any baring, the car is a black Lotus Elise that I hear has a hard laquer on it.



Cheers,



Greg
 
It would help if you had a pc :) not sure on the products though. Good luck, best bet would be to find a local autopian who is willing to have a look at it.

Have you looked on the UK forum?
 
Autoglym won't remove swirls and it will dry "grey" and dull the finish



If you are polishing by hand it's going to take a bit of time and patience

For Swirls start with Sonus Hand Polish Kit of Restore plus Final Finish with a Pro Applicator then finish with P21S carnauba..
