How to remove swirls?
Well, I have only washed my car a few times so far but already, the swirls are driving me nuts. I guess that is what I get for deciding on Jerez.
Anyway, please tell me what I need to buy and how to use it to get rid of them. |

stop buying black cars.... seriously, if you have never used a buffer i would stay away. start with this buy hand-let it do the work vs pressure.

Costco ones are nothing compared to a good quality Detailer's Micro Fiber towel. Ones like CG sells might seem expensive but they are 3-4x as plush as the Costco ones.

Oh yeah... almost forgot.
Find a decent detailer, have him remove the swirls, then apply several coats of JetSeal and Wax, then enjoy. Many detailers offer a good package program where you take your car in to them 3-4 times a year and pricing wise it usually saves you about 30-40% and you wont have to worry about swirls. Whats a couple hundred bucks to be rid of a nuiscence like swirls. |

get a PC (porter cable) or flex 3401 they are random buffers...depending on how much cutting power you need there are a lot of different color pads for different cutting depth...pair it up with mezerna sip
*edit* any noob with either of those two buffers would be able to get rid of all the orange peel, swirl marks, etc off of their paint given you have some common sense as well |

3M FILL N GLAZ... Which has been discontinued, but 3M has another GLAZ product for about 30.00 bucks a bottle. You will have to go to a automotive paint store that sells 3M paint products. Been using the product for well over 20 years.
