Havent used WG, but I cant imagine it being that strong. If you have XMT 2 then start with that, then just work your way up.

WG swirl remover is weak as water. I assume you're working with a PC, so - I'd suggest Optimum polish, far cheaper per ounce and since it's pad dependant you can start with a yellow pad and finish with a white one (also assuming you're using LC). Though, I have not tried Poorboys personally, that is another line to consider. THe thing with polishes is I have only found one that has the perfect balance between being too gummy (longer work time like Optimum) or too dusty (Poorboys and Meguairs). And I can't mention which one it is cause...well..let's say my favorite on-line store ain't selling it ...yet!
