Hi all,
New poster, just got my first order from Autogeek and am excited. I'm the proud owner of a new GG polisher w/5" backing plate and some white and blue LC flat pads. Will be washing/claying my black 2010 Dodge Ram 1500 Laramie this weekend, and will be using the GG One Step Sealant, which seemed like a good first choice for a noob w/a DA. :autowash:
The paint is in very good shape, with a few light swirl marks, but nothing major. I discovered last week, after I had placed my order, that some inconsiderate so and so scraped what looks like a mirror down the rear quarter of the bed, leaving behind a white paint transfer and some fairly shallow scratches. :doh:
After having read Mikes post on paint transfer at http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/auto-detailing-101/38815-how-remove-paint-transfer.html I'm wondering what OTC product I can use as a substitute for the Pinnacle Paint Cleansing Lotion used in the article. Would something like Meguiars SwirlX or Mothers Scratch Remover be ok, or is there something more gentle I can start with? I have access to the major parts store chains, NAPA, Wal-Mart, etc.
Thanks in advance.
Joe
