Rate my products. (new member)

O.K. guysI've been checking the site out for about a month now and I've got my PC and Sonus kit and I need someone to tell me what products I have are worth using. I have been holding out on the AIO and other stuff everyone raves about since it's not locally available. Here is what I have and could someone recommend some steps with the products I have. THANKS!!!!!

I will tell you that 3M SMR is pretty useless. It fills and does not remove. 3M's polishes are very good, they have more aggressive polishes that do the work of swirl removal while giving you a very nicely prepped surface ready for wax. You could go from FI II finishing material right to a wax. Speaking of waxes, I really like #26 and I think most here would agree.



My routine is:



3M FCRC if swirls are bad (with cutting pad - though I am going to try it this Spring with a polishing pad to see if I can remove heavy swirling without hazing the paint)

3M PI III Machine Glaze (to remove hazing from FCRC or if swirls are moderate to light, with a polishing pad)

Meg's #16 or #26 to finish
