And I ordered this yesterday about 4:00 PM ET via the phone I live in Florida and AG is in Stuart.

My question is I have a 2005 Lincoln Town Car with Tri-coat paint it is camel/tan with metal flake that sparkles, the TC has 70,000+- miles and the paint is in very good shape with some light swirl marks but since its a light color you can see the swirls at night when the light reflects off of the car.

I'm going to wash with WG auto bathe 2 bucket of course,clay wash again blow dry,tape off moldings etc and do a test section 2x2.

I would appreciate any advice. Thank in advance

It looks like this kit contains 1 orange, 1 white, and 1 blue pad.

For a car that size, you are going to need a few more polishing pads (orange or white). I would suggest 4 pads minimum just for polishing if doing it in 2 steps. Otherwise, you will need to clean them often. Pads become less effective when they get dirty and that does not meet just wiping the residue off.

For the finishing step, I would consider at least 3 pads. I would have suggested the black finishing pads but the blues may work.

Be careful on work area. You can get better results on a smaller area (less than 2x2) especially with the Porter Cable.

I just did the hood of my red Jetta with the 3.0 swirl and 3.0 finishing glaze. I was wowed at the end result. But is there a certain setting on my 7424 HD I should have it on to apply these? Also just put a coat wax on top of it until my Blackfire sealant comes in a couple of days.

Use the following guideline --> Speed setting 5-6 for TSR and 3-4 for FG and for wax application 1-2
