Goldy,

You're probably going to need more than just an Adam's product for the swirls. Most of these compounds need a lot more work to breakdown appropriately that your hands can deliver. Look into getting a Porter Cable random orbital buffer/sander. You purchase a backing plate and polishing pads to go with it and then apply the polish with that combination. The PC is a very mild machine as far as Corvette clear coats is concerned, so you don't need to worry about inducing holograms or buffer marks.

Great point bldavis11!!

Our products can be used by hand or in conjuction with the Porter Cable 7424 D/A Polisher. The polisher makes swirl removal and polishing an absolute breeze. We have 2 two-sided German made Durafoam Pads that offer great results for swirl removal. There is no way you can burn or damage your finish using the D/A polisher.

Dale,

I was one of the lucky winners and I got the Detail Spray today. I tried it on my '97 Chevy truck and am impressed. The surface feels like it has been waxed. The faded door handles came up nice and black and it even took a blueish haze off the black mirrors. Damn, I'll be putting an order in very soon.

Thanks again for the Detail Spray.

Daryll,

I haven't used those pads before, so I can't make any serious recommendations. Here's my advice though.

Figure out what "cut" each color pad is. You can do this by just squeezing the pads between your fingers. The firmer the pads, the more aggressive the cut. With the most popular brand of polishing pads, Lake Country, the color codes from weakest to strongest cut are, in order, black-white-orange-yellow. There might be a blue in there, but it isn't commonly used in the Lake Country pad word. Select the medium cut pad.

Make certain your car is washed and clayed before starting the polishing process. I rinse the car after I've clayed. Be certain to use lots of "lube" while your attacking the contamination with the clay. Any good Quick Detailer will work just fine.

Apply a small amount of the product to the bottom of the pad. I like to make a star shape with the polish onto the pad. Without turning the machine on, spread the product onto the surface of the car. You should be working in sections no larger than 2' x 2', so smear the product in that general size.

Turn on the PC to speed 3 and make a few quick passes across the section you are working. You're just spreading the product evenly at this stage.

Crank up the PC to 5 or 5.5 and work the product into the section. First start with overlapping horizontal passes, then move to overlapping vertical passes. I usually then go diagonal in one direction till the opposite corner, the starting in an adjacent corner work across the section in an opposing diagonal path. This way I've covered the area completely 4 times. The product should be starting to dust off at this point. Take a good microfiber towel and wipe off the excess.

It took 3 passes with Menzerna Intensive Polish, an orange Lake Country pad (their medium cut), and a PC on 5.5 followed by two passes with Menzerna's Final Polish-II on a white pad at 5.5 to achieve 98%+ swirl and scratch removal. The defects that were not removed probably never could be without wet sanding or a total repaint.

One last thing, don't forget to protect/seal the newly polished paint with a quality "last step product." Natural carnuba waxes or polymer sealents like Rejex and the Zaino product line are popular choices, but there are many many others.

PM me or post any questions you have.
