    Re: Swirl and scratch removal

    Yes in fact. I was looking for a product that I could remove swirls and scratches in the clear coat on my bike. Meguiars is releasing a product in mid-January called SwirlX, specifically for the application I was looking for. If that doesn't work then I will go the next step. Thanks

    From the reviews I've read that should wrok very well for you.

    You may want to pick up some of the Ultimate compound too for the deeper scratches (RIDS)

    Re: Swirl and scratch removal

    Bringing this thread back. A buddy of mine paints and air brushes
    bikes for a living. I have seen him buff out some pretty deep
    scratches. He uses 3M Perfect-it II and 3M Finesse-it II.
    He uses an air DA with 2 inch pads. Leaves the paint flawless.
    I just bought a Flex and will be using that for mine. I take my
    tanks and fenders off all the time so I can get to every area
    of the paint.

    Re: Swirl and scratch removal

    Though I have no experience with menzerna, I know powergloss is a heavy cut compound, and I know the pc has a tough time breaking it down. So knowing that, I wouldn't even attempt trying powergloss by hand. Way too much trouble by hand.

    Meguiars new products with SMAT technology all work excellent by hand.

    Some otc stuff that contains it is ultimate compound, swirlx, or scratch x 2.0. I would try these first before I used powergloss by hand. If the ultimate compound doesn't take it out than more than likely you will need a machine
