Best product for filling swirls and minor scratches?
Hey Guys,
I am very new to detailing and not quite ready to jump in to purchasing a DA and doing a proper paint correction, but I do want to at least apply a sealant. I purchased some Collinite 845, but my understanding is that this does not do much to fill the swirl marks and/or minor scratches. Since I am not doing a proper paint correction with a DA, what do you guys suggest I put on prior to 845 that will fill in some of the swirls and at least hide some of the imperfections? I am not looking for perfection, just something that will help the appearance a little.
Along with the Collinite I bought some Wolfgang Uber Rinseless and plan to apply Iron X and clay with the Nanoskin Fine Towel to prep the car for the Collinite.
I also had a question about using an isopropyl alcohol solution after claying. It is necessary to do that right before applying the Collinite or before putting down a glaze?
My car is a 2012 Altima in Steel Gray Metallic if that matters. I can add some pics later if that helps.
Love the forum!
Thanks!

I think a glaze is what you would want.

following what you said you want to do............
wash
clay
re-wash
glaze
wax
my glaze of choice is Poorboys. For you poorboys white diamond is probably the right choice.

You will find a lot of filler products from a production detail supply vendor.

It looks like this is for light colored cars, mine is a med dark grey. Does it even matter?

Can this be applied by hand?
