Hi All,
I'm from Venezuela, just registered, although I have already ordered twice (although still waiting for the last one). I'm warning you, this is going to be a looooong post...
I have already made a few things but still feel I'm missing a few things. Instead of buying a DA, I bought a circular polisher and lucky enough to not have burned through the paint.
I have a black Toyota Corolla (the second car I worked on) and got sort of good results, as follows:

For this work, I used 3M products: Clay bar, Swirl remover for dark paints, imperial hand glaze and Show car liquid wax. I don't like the hard work it gives to remove their products, so I'd like something else for polishing. After a month I gave it a coat of EX-P and a coat of P21s. But there are a few details as the 3M Swirl Remover is too mild.
(this is how the car looks with EX-P and P21s on upper panels)

I was thinking about Poorboy's SSR series but would like know what you think about it and what other options do you suggest, as I will work on 2 light grey (almost silver) and 1 dark grey car :)
That's all for now...
