Greetings guys and gals. So I've been considering using Meguiars #105 and #205 on my car to remove light-medium swirl marks. I've been taking very good care of the paint and the car looks fabulous in natural lighting. But I've noticed that when I get really close under the lighting in my carport, a ton of swirls can be seen.

Here are my questions:

Would this combination be too harsh for BMWs?

Am I overdoing it by using these products? On the Meguiars grading scale of abrasiveness, the #105 is up there, maybe 11/12 i think.

Should I be using something lighter? Again, the swirl marks/spider webs are light and can only be seen under bright lights and at certain angles.

Lastly, if you have ever removed swirl marks using these products or any others with success, please recommend the product used.



I can't help but think that if I removed the swirls, the paint would look greater than it already does. I was considering taking it to a professional detailer, but I'd rather save the money for other mods!
Thank you for any input.

you always should try light cutting product first unless you have extensive knowledge and great deal of experience.

if you can see that you not achieving great results try a more higher cutting power/product.

i recently used Pinnacle Advanced Swirl Remover and it works quite good given that my swirls were quite light.


hope it helps
