Hi,
reading through various posts here I am pretty sure I am going down the right track with what I want to do and probably this has been covered before,but I suppose each car and its owner is unique in the way it is looked after.
My car is coloured red hot/sting red, paint work is in very good condition,but,it has swirls and many scratches on it,not deep ones,but in the right light enough to annoy me to put me where I am going with it now.I am sure car has clear coat on it 2008 VE Omega Commodore.
I purchased a bottle of Ultimate Compound with the advice from Mequiars here in Australia,also purchased some of the yellow foam applicators,got home and could not wait so applied some UC onto the boot scratches with the applicators and buffed off with mf cloth,with only one pass the difference was amazing,so I intend to do another coat of UC to see of it will just get rid of those real fine scratches I have left.
I had some slight white hazing on the bonnet,I cautiously gave that a very light rub and the haze was replaced by some nice red paint.
My question,should I continue with the UC for the rest of the car and should I go to the "even coat mf pads"( the white ones) instead of the foam ones,I will be doing small sections on each panel,what would be the best polish/wax to finish it off with?
Apologies if this has been covered before,but by asking the above about my car I then do not have to try and decipher other posts to find some thing that is exact to my query.
Thank you for reading this.
