Wash
Clay
Swirl & Haze Remover with PC (very slow, heavy pressure passes)
Fine Machine Wax with PC
The paint looks wet/awesome but there are still a few swirls. The paint on these cars is f-ing hard! No matter how hard I hit it or how much pressure I used, I just could not get the all the swirls out with the PC and S&H remover or the polish. Had I done this job one of my other American rides, the paint would've been flawless.
I guess I'll have to take it to a pro towards the end of Summer.

I think you need to fly over Anzafin to the SFV.
You know that he can get those swirls out.

! Just maybe...But what is SFV in this affiliation?
El Immigrante: Try Menzerna's products and Lake Country pads
! Maybe you need just a bit more abrasive polish to start with.
