Re: Swirl Marks/Spider Webs
Meguiar's NXT Tech Wax.
I did the beta testing on this product and one of it's characteristics was the ability to fill in "fine" or shallow swirls. A lot of people recommend Poorboy's Black Hole Glaze for the same ability.
Blackfire One Step is a very high quality cleaner/wax and is you worked it well enough by hand you could actually remove swirls with it.
Hope that helps...

I'm sorry I posted it here. I looked at some of the replies here and figured it would be better here. You can move it, erase it, whatever. I'm sorry that I made a mistake and posted it here. Next time I will ask before I post!

Re: Swirl Marks/Spider Webs
No worries, blueoval. It's ok. We all sometimes post something into categories that aren't an exact fit.
I think Mike is coming from the perspective of how the forum can better serve you. You're likely to get more responses, opinions and answers to your question in that suggested category.

Re: Swirl Marks/Spider Webs
My recommendation would be to use an All in One product as you can do a bit of polishing and waxing with the same product. This will make it far easier on the arm as you only need to go around the vehicle once. You can compound by hand but that is a chore. After that you should follow up with a polish or an All In One.
This is a new product that can be had locally.
Meguiar?s 3-in-1 Wax
This is a great product if you decide to purchase online. I use this with great results.

Paul, where in Tampa are you located? I used to live in Seffner, FL. 1987-2012. I used to do my friends and neighbors detailing on the weekends. I have also used a few local detailers there to do the FULL DETAIL (wash, clay, paint prep, polish, wax).
Anyway, so I made a mistake posting in the wrong forum. I honestly think it belongs here being it's a paint correction item. It very well could probably use a wet sanding. That's what I thought someone was going to suggest, and I wanted to read about it here.
Again, I APOLOGIZE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I still have some BLACKFIRE WET DIAMOND sealant. Are you referring to that?
I have been wanting to try that new 3 IN 1 wax. I do have some paste Meguiar's Cleaner Wax.
I want to use something that won't bankrupt my checking account, but will at least cut the swirl marks a little bit. Sounds like the 3 IN 1 is what I need. Is there any other products here you would suggest?
THANK YOU!

Thanks Paul.
With 42,000 posts on this forum I'm pretty confident my posting history is one of helping others, not demeaning them.

Re: Swirl Marks/Spider Webs
No prob, Mike.
BlueOval, I'm in Citrus Park.
In my opinion, wetsanding would be my last resort and levelling your paint with compounds would be less aggressive to your paint and much more effective. Doing it by hand is far more difficult than using a random orbital machine.
I also agree with Mike@DedicatedPerfection on the use of a good cleaner wax, especially if working by hand. The BF Sealant is not one of those as it's a sealant or "wax" only. A good cleaner wax has a combination of mild abrasives, cleaners and wax/sealant.
Where are you located? Maybe there's a "loaner" buffer locally available.
