have you already tested your correction steps that you mentioned?

Curious to know why you are immediately jumping to the thin PFW pad and why you state it is the "only pad that will work on hard clear".


I've achieved good correction on black audi paint with a light cutting pad and a medium polish (ohp).

... I guess I just want to reiterate the fact that you need to do adequate testing and should always "use the least aggressive method first" before you jump to the heavy stuff. Sometimes you'll be surprised.

Cool, take a 50/50 shot. Really quick to do. Some before pictures and of course some after pictures.

Oh and have a great time detailing. (Always important) :D

Good luck, keep us posted and happy detailing. :props:
