    Re: Ceramic Clear Coats

    The process is the same as removing swirls from a traditional clear coat but in some cases you might need to do more passes or use a more agressive product.

    It is best to do a test spot to determine how hard or soft the paint is first. Some ceramic clear coats are suprisingly soft while others are really hard.

    What type of car are you working on?

          Sounds like you already detailed them?

          If not, use the M105/205 Combo by DA. They are a bit harder than regular clear coats but same process

            Well, if the ceramic clear coat is soft enough then M105 might not be neccesary, maybe just M205 would remove the swirl marks?

            use the least aggressive product to get the job done, just dont go straight to M105 Ultra Cut Compound. Try a cleaner/polish first such as M80 Speed Glaze, SwirlX, M205 etc. A compound is a lot stronger than a cleaner/polish and theres no point in removing more clearcoat than necessary to remove the swirls.

            hope this helps.
