Whats the best wax or whatever to get the small scratches out that look like spiderwebs. I can only see them in direct sun light but they drive me crazy. I plan on buying a adams kit soon so is there anything special i should look for?

Polishing is what will remove those... and you'll need a machine. What kit were you looking at getting?

I agree with him. Adams is the right stuff for me and my car. Also, machine polishing is the way to go

I was looking at one of the big kits that have the PC.

Use a PC and either Zaino Z-2 or Z-5 and they will be gone!

Good call... the combination of polishes, pads, and porter cable are all you need to remove those marks from your paint.

And if they are bad enough it will take a while. I have watched vids and performed several passes over paint and They are very very very difficult to remove; Only thing I can think of maybe I am not using enough product. Or maybe not cleaning my pad enough. I put 2-3 dots of product on fender. It takes practice so do know it will take some learning no matter what you use; oh and my car is black!

Technique and perfect practice is everything. You can watch videos of Tiger Woods playing golf but until you put the hours behind the clubs, your golf game will be no where near Tiger's.

You should revisit my paint correction thread.
