yah, you can try some ScratchX on foam pad with some elbow grease. you will work in the product quite a bit until pretty much dry. do 3-4 apps.

personally i use a random orbital and Griot's Polish3 for light swirls.

I bought this Simoniz Applicator kit for my orbital buffer and it gave me;

4 Terry cloth bonnets
1 Foam bonnet
1 wax applicator (which looks just like the terry cloth bonnet just it doesnt have long threads that stick out)

Which one am i supposed to use to put wax and polish on? its telling me the wax applicator which doesnt look all that great, i thought you were suposed to use the foam/sponge looking ones?

thanks,

Go for meguiars m-205 and m-105, Menzerna polishes are great too. Go over to autogeek.net and join and search their forum. all those products over there are top of the line...

im not a fan of terry cloth bonnets cause they claim 100% cotton but 100% of the time, it is false... well, so far.

and that leads to actually additional hazing and even halograms.
