I bought the Porter Cable 7424xp Pinnacle Twins kit which comes with 16oz of both
Advanced Swirl Remover and Advanced Finishing Polish.
How far will this get me? Is it even enough for an entire car?:confused:

Good grief, I would certainly hope so! I was able to polish 4 cars with about 24oz. of Meg's M105, and that was probably still using too much. I used about 16-20oz. of M205 on the same 4 cars.

*Sorry Mike, just realized this was your thread.:doh:

I find I use on average 2-4 ounces of polish per step per car. Less for paint in better condition, more for paint in worse condition. Also size of the vehicle counts as well not to mention how well the particular product works, its working time, and other characteristics. Some polish youll use less, others youll use more.

For instance I tend to use more of Meguiars D151 than I do menzerna polishes as the D151 tends to work better when its "wetter".

But 2-4 ounces per car would net you 4-8 cars with 16oz of polish.
