Thanks

Are you using a machine or doing it by hand?

do you have heavy swirling or oxidation?

lude2lust · 07-04-2006, 05:12 PM

using a buffer. Most cars I do are fairly new, so the paint is in good shape (parents 97 I30/98 Audi) etc

What kind of buffer - rotary, PC, cheap orbital buffer?

What's a good polish for using by hand, something that will bring back the shine (trunk is turning pink!).

i use LIQUID GLASS right now by hand. Works great...
Going to try Zaino next.
Colin....what kinda stuff did you use at the detail shop?
Also...if any of you have a Strauss near ya....time to stock up on some oil/detailing stuff/ramps/etc.

Go with the 3-step line from Mothers or Meguiar's.

if that doesn't work, I use scratchX to bring the red out of my plastic pieces that turn pink... i go between that and some paint cleaner and it gets bright red..
