So, what is it? What situations are best for #9? Is this a redheaded stepchild now? When would a car guy think, "THIS situation is why Meguiar's made #9!!!!!!"
It's for the red Miata, a 1997 with single stage paint. And there's not a lot of paint left on this car, seriously.
My car has about a year and a half of swirl buildup. For me, that means it looks like the "after" shots in a lot of pictures, but since that's where it is, I figure I can get all those swirls knocked down one more level. But I'm not going to break out the #83; it's too strong. My initial thought is Menzerna Final Polish, but I'm almost out of it, and I don't want to buy more stuff. I know I have things on the shelf that will work; among the Meguiar's products available are (deep breath)....
Deep Crystal Body Scrub, Deep Crystal Step 1, Gold Class Paint Cleaner, Medallion Paint Cleaner, #6, ColorX, Deep Crystal Cleaner Wax (paste & liquid), #9, #80, #82, #2, ScratchX ( I have enough ScratchX to drown a cat), #83 #84 and #85, #1... I can work by hand, rotary, or cyclo.
I'm sure one of those can take off those swirls without taking off too much paint. I'm thinking, #9, because the finish is OK, nice and smooth and glossy except for the swirls.
