Here's a video on my Instagram page showing the swirl removal done LIVE and in real-time.
This time it's on the blue vinyl stripes on a 2018 Shelby Mustang GT350

Great read, Mike. Especially with these types of graphics becoming rather common again.
I think it’s important to stress a quality polish as you did with great abrasives. Basically a crappy buffing liquid will produce crappy results.
Too add: I have used BF One Step and a soft finishing pad on multiple graphics with great results. Quality abrasives. It’s an option if someone isn’t willing to spend/pay for the extra time involved coating the graphics.

Was astonishing to see the level of swirls in the stripes on both the Chevy and the Ford.
What are people thinking?

Totally agree.

Copy that. Not only does the BLACKFIRE One Step work great on the graphics shown on both cars in the above videos but it also works great to buff out clear plastic bras aka PPF

Nice write up Mike. The video alone speaks for itself.

Thanks Michael. That was the real deal.
Impossible to mock-up something like this when you do it LIVE!

Hey Mike, in this video you used the Pixie, Rupes soft foam finishing pad and Pinnacle Advanced Finishing Polish.

I'm assuming this is the fist pad and product combo you used on your test spot as this seems to be a very gentle combo.
Is that the Speedmaster Swirlfinder Light? I just ordered the Pinnacle Advanced Finishing Polish. I noticed I only ordered an 8 ounce bottle. Is that enough to get around a whole car? If not I've got time to order another.
