Best swirl removing system?

[pcw25]

Hi! I was just wondering what the fastest and most efficient system is for removing swirls from dark finishes. I have a Porter Cable with many LC pads. What product/pad combination works for you? I know it depends on the type of clearcoat/damage, I was just wondering what most people use. Thanks.

Big fan of Megs MF pads and polishes. Next to that, M105/205 or UC/SwX.

Depending on how bad it is I like SIP with a white pad or orange if there are stubborn spots

could you explain what SIP is? lol i dont know all the terms yet.

also, isn't m105 strong for swirl marks? i don't just want to chop down the entire clear coat to remove swirls...

Menzerna Super Intensive Polish.

M105/M205 is a good combination. The Wolfgang Twins(Total Swirl Remover and Finishing Glaze). Optimum Hyper Compound and Hyper Polish.

what pad would i use with m105? and m205? for medium swirls.

Always do a test spot to determine the least aggressive method that can achieve the results you are looking for. So start off with M105 with a white Lake Country pad on speed 5-6. Then check your results. If that combination doesn't give you the results you are looking for, step up to an orange Lake Country pad. Then either used a black or white Lake Country pad with the M205 to finish up.

You could always try some Megs Ultimate Compound with yellow pad. test spot first.

I would say your one stop shop or buy would be Meguiars MF system. Everything is included in the kit minus the machine. You can go wrong with that kit.

Other options are M105/M205 or Ultimate compound/Ultimate polish.
