Wolfgang Swirl Remover, Glaze and Polish enhancer

If im doing a total detail, would i use all 3 of these products (swirl remover, then glaze, then enhancer) followed by a sealant or wax. Im just a little confused with these 3 products. Thanks

If you are using the first 2 steps, then the last step(PPE) is not needed.

Re: Wolfgang Swirl Remover, Glaze and Polish enhancer

Great question!

Normally when detailing a car you would do a few or all of the below steps,
  1. Wash and dry
  2. Clay the surface if needed
  3. Clean the surface and/or remove below surface defects
  4. Polish the surface to a high gloss
  5. Seal the surface with either a wax or a paint sealant

For the 3rd step if you had swirls and scratches, you would use the Wolfgang Total Swirl Remover

If the paint is in pretty good shape then could skip the swirl remover and just prep the paint with either the Wolfgang Paintwork Polish Enhancer or you could use the Finishing Glaze.

The Total Swirl Remover and Finishing Glaze are often referred to as the Wolfgang Twins because they compliment one another and are most often used with a Dual Action Polisher to restore a show car shine to neglected paint.

The Paintwork Polish Enhancer tends to appeal to people that want to work by hand but it too can be used with a DA Polisher.

Re: Wolfgang Swirl Remover, Glaze and Polish enhancer

Here is what I did today, took ~7hrs total.

1. Wash and Dry
2. Wolfgang Total Swirl Remover (Orange CCS Pad)
2.5 Klasse All in One Polish on hard to reach/not too noticeable areas
3. Wolfgang Finishing Glaze (White CCS Pad)
4. Pinnacle's Liquid Sourveran Wax

I did not clay since the paint still felt smooth. It turned out well, not perfect, but I'm satisfied for the time it took. I did this on my DD, 2010 Toyota Corolla Barcelona Metallic Red.
