    Need help with results from XMT

    Well, I went through the XMT line and process beginning with the orange pad and no. 2 swirl remover. I still have some marks like the deeper spider lines remaining. Do you guys recommend stepping up to the intermediate swirl remover and a yellow pad?

    How long are you letting XMT2 work and break down?

    Any pics available?

    Are you using pressure?

    You need to use enough just to bog the PC down at a #5 setting and then back off a little. Work only a 2 foot by 2 foot area.

    Have you watched the PC videos here?

    Let us know.....

    Justin's got the right line of attack. Polishing time ?? Pad choice ?? It all helps as there is no fast and miraculous way with a PC to correct paint.

    I worked the xmt2 in for 6 minutes each time for three times. I just went to take a few pics and the camera battery crapped out, so give me 15 minutes and I'll have some pics up of what Im talking about.
