Light swirl removal

[jimbo666]

Hello, first time using the pc today. Ive got some light swirls and holograms. Should i be ok using sfx 2 polish on sfx 2 pad and then to follow up with srp on the sfx 3 pad?

That would be my first port of call. How well it will work may vary as even minor swirls may be a biatch to shift.

didnt work very well at all, even after multiple passes. that renault paint seems to be hard stuff. think ill have to order some #83 this week and try it at the weekend. would i be best to use that on the sfx2 pad first then if its not working well move to a sfx1?

 

[Rich]

Even light swirls do take some shifting.

Chances are it will need a light cut pad but ideally you should try it on the polishing pad first. Not a big #83 fan and don't use it myself these days but a lot of others do so will hopefully give you some more advice on it.

You know you want the IP james. I still have a bottle with some in if you want to try it.

 

[Rich]

The above is the way to go!

 

[jimbo666]

yes ado, that would be good. ill text you tomorrow

ive heard mixed feelings about #83, but also heard IP was quite hard to work with. suppose you dont know if you dont try!

 

[Rich]

Neither are as easy to use as SSR 2.5.

IP yeilds the best finish for me. I did a red 306 Rallye with it yesterday and followed it with Megs 80 which looked sweet.

im sold with the IP then

great work there as usual Rich

what pad combo did you use for that?

 

[Rich]

Sonus SFX 1 Light Cut Pad with the origional Formula Intensive Polish.

Then Sonus SFX 2 Polishing pad with Megs #80 as I had seen it work well on flat red so tried that rather than Final Finish.

The finish left by the IP alone was wax/sealant ready by the #80 really added extra gloss. My mate was well pleased.

cool, cheers Rich.

I'd be happy if mine looked like that too

 

[ado]

I wouldn't. Yours is blue.
