Ok, I just got my PC and I needed to try to get some of my swirls out. I had #9 (meguairs swirl remover) and I tried applying that by both hand and pc and it will didnt do anything for the swirls.
So I ran to my local pepboys and with my trusty guide, http://www.dano.pocketrubbish.com/detailing/productchart.htm , I found perfect it II rubbing compound (39002) . Ran home, and tried it with the PC. Now I dont even have the correct pads yet, Im using the stock one that came with the PC. Dont worry, I should be getting my SONUS kit in a day or two. But I couldent wait.
So I applied the product to the pad and rubbed it on the area I was going to work on while the pc was off. Turned it on to 1 and did a few slow passes, bumped it up to 3 did a few more passes, bumped it up to 6 did a few more passes. Removed it, and here is the result.
I dont have a before pic of the EXACT location, but the 2 before pics you see are 2 other spots on the hood directly above the spot and to the right of the spot I did. They all had similar swirl marks.
Now I have a question.
1) I am supposed to be applying this before the AIO right? Or is AIO really neccessary after applying this?
2) On half of my hood, I already applied AIO and SG. I want to get the swirls out. Can I just put this rubbing compound ontop of these layers and will it still work? Or do i need to remove the SG at least, with AIO I would assume.
