<To tell the truth, by your description, it sounds like a case of what is sometimes referred to as, crazing, or lacquer checking.



It doesn't have to be lacquer paint to have lacquer checking, the term lacquer checking did start with lacquer paints, but it seems to carry over to modern paints as a descriptive term to describe little straight scratches evenly distributed throughout the finish.>





Mike could you expand more on what you were saying? Where can I find out more on it?

Why don't you take it to a professional, just for a second opinion, or let somone else clean it up?

I dont know where to find a professional. Thats a good idea. If I can find one i will go get a second opinion. Thanks

I dont know anyone else that can clean it up.

Scottwax lists his home as Arlington (near Dallas) which is a good 4 hours from San Antonio. Don't know how far Scottwax travels to work but if he was doing work in Waco at least it would be half way. You might try contacting him. Website is www.scottwax.com

just read your post..



what has worked for me was using the 3M fine cut compound for w orange pad, at speed 5, then scaling down to 3M SMR with another orange pad at speed 5 .. of course little areas at a time, with my h2O/alcohol solution.. took me quite some time, but all the swirls were gone..
