    Better than 105/205?

    Re: New 2011 Caddy CTS-V Coupe light swirl removal

    Ok, just washed the car. Almost 50 degrees today, so lucky, as snow will be here this week (AGAIN).

    Anyway, car was nor prepped per my instructions. The car was inside overnight, but they put it outside during the day(had to work on other cars). I believe the swirls are from wiping snow off the car.

    The finish is raw, with some contaminants, so needs claying. The swirls are light, fine spider webs. Otherwise, looks great. Will clay the finish, windshield, and windows.

    So, for correction, 5.5 LC pads(Hydro seems to get a lot of votes), Griots polisher better than PC?

    Megs 105/205 vs Wolfgang TSR/Glaze? Benefits to either? Or a push.

    Thanks guys!

    5.5 Hydrotech pads !

    Griots polisher !

    Menzerna/Wolfgang combo ! (especially if its your first time polishing a car, The Meg's 105/205 has a learning curve that can verge on STEEP depending on the weather and conditions. Just my opinion, so no flaming from the community about the MEG'S. The Wolfgang/Menzerna polish is foolproof IMO, just dont be afraid to work it long enough, with the Griots this should be NO problemo ! )
