first let me say i am a huge fan of your work .
second i bought a pc 7424 and im teaching my self along with your awesome videos how to polish and detail .
butttttt ..... i cant seem to not get swirl lines in the paint

i am using on speed 5 and a very slow movement in a up and down and then follow with a side to side ! but when im done with the polish and i rub off excess i have a couple of lines .

is this normal and the wax will get rid of it or WTF am i doing wrong ???

i am sure its hard because your not here to see it but any advice would be appreciated ! thanks and once again im a huge fan of the skills you posses

SILVER BULLITT · 09-22-2010, 01:02 AM

here is a couple of progressive pics i did of my mothers car clay bar ,polish ,polish and then wax. and i must admit its not bad for not using a swirl remover/and im an amateur..

but i still get those lines

but you cant see them in this pic but i think you know what im talking about

GEEo · 09-22-2010, 01:05 AM

IMO looks good!

except for the first pic tho.

SILVER BULLITT · 09-22-2010, 01:09 AM

thanks geeo ! yah the first pic is how her paint looked before i touched it and all those horizontal lines are scratches from a dirty mit or something from the local car wash machine .....

GEEo · 09-22-2010, 01:12 AM

Adam's Polishes · 09-22-2010, 03:02 AM

What products/pads are you using?

Also how many passes have you done? I see a noticeable improvement from the first shot to the last so you are making progress.

SILVER BULLITT · 09-22-2010, 03:11 AM

well i bought a pc at a local detailing shop called 3d imaging ( they also knew of adams product...which was cool ) and the pc came with a little 8 oz bottle of 3d imaging polish and one of wax .the pads are also theirs and both pads are recommended for each product. but i cant seem to get rid of the swirl lines .

Sir Nuke · 09-22-2010, 09:35 AM

What you need to do is first wash the car using DAWN to remove EVERYTHING off the car, use the two bucket wash method. Do the BAGGIE TEST, then clay the car if or where needed. THEN since you have the PC now, you need to get Adams Swirl and Haze Remover, Maching Polish, and Machine Wax. First, watch all the videos from Junkman. Then start with the Swirl an Haze Remover, do the WHOLE car at each step. then the Machine Polish, then the Machine Wax. this will solve your issues.

Adam's Polishes · 09-22-2010, 09:40 AM

I googled but came up blank on "3D Imagaing Polish". Theres 3D Products, who make the HD car care line in Santa Clarita - is that who you went to?

If they only gave you one "polish" and one "wax" then the polish is likely only a finishing product, a good paint correction process is gonna be 2 stage... a more aggressive product to remove the swirl marks and a finer polish to restore gloss and remove any artifacts left behind by the first product.

THEN you'd apply a wax to protect the finish.

SILVER BULLITT · 09-22-2010, 08:20 PM

anyone else care to drop a line ???

jagan323 · 09-22-2010, 08:27 PM

Dylan is right... you need at least 2 steps in your polishing process... the stuff you are using probably isn't strong enough O_o. Goodluck

SILVER BULLITT · 09-22-2010, 09:14 PM

yah i just picked up a stronger polish today and i will try it soon . after i use the stronger then do i have to use the light and then the sealant ?
