Speaking of swirls and scratches, check out hayaku's "blue pill or red pill" post. Magnificent.

And, I am admittedly stupid/slow and can't find
the GB details.

Any pointers?

Thanks for helping a near senior citizen, cross the
street, K!

I started to search, but I'm missing 3 plug wires
on this site, this morning...the search proved
futile with error 404, page reloads, page not
loaded, etc. When I win the lotto I'm buying
J & theDoc a whole fookin room of servers,

Thanks again, V/K!

zaino is great if your paint is in good condition. its got a nice shine and last a very long time. nothing wrong with using it. but you will see MUCH better shine and luster from a properly prepared surface.

however, if you got swirls, the proper fix is to polish it out. although zaino's label says its a polish, its really a top coat. polishes cut the clear coat down and even so its shiny again. the majority of swirls are cuts in the clear coat, so you have to "sand" them down to remove them. you can do this by hand or with a machine like the porter cable dual action polishers.

Thanks!! I just don't get it? How did the damn swirls get on there in the first place? The X is only 8 months old and has never been buffed, except maybe the dealer detail it before I got it!!!

most swirls are put on when you wash and dry the car... sad but true... thats why the use of MF drying towels are highly recommended. chamois, 100% cotton towels, etc all put swirls.. in fact, MF does some micro-marring that you can see if you put a halogen light up to it, but a top coat of wax will fill it in very nicely...

i use only sheepskin wash mitts to wash and MF towels to dry...

tons more tips from much more knowledge people then me over at www.autopia.org but i'm very happy with the results my process produces
