Cleaning and Detailing / Eliminating swirl marks - best stuff and method
« on: 28 June 2018, 09:50:36 PM »
Many people compliment me on the appearance of me black Saab 9-3 convertible ... but I can't help noticing that many (previous owner) five quid or bob-a-job week washes have left swirl marks.
Took a trip to a local clean/detail shop, who quoted £400 for a thorough job. That's about a quarter of what I paid for the car, so it's a no-go.
To find a DIY solution, I made the mistake of going on YouTube and confused myself with all kinds of yankee gotta-dos, but there seems to be a case for Meguiar's Ultimate Compound or maybe just their Swirl-X.
Why I went to the detailers' in the first place is that I have to work at the roadside where I'm obliged to park me little darlin'.
Has anyone undertaken a similar endeavour and would you please advise on the best stuff to use and the best method?
