Be prepared to spend some money on products, quality products that won't create swirls again are not cheap, and learn proper care of them. Also keep an eye out for sales and specials. I spent $550 on everything I just got, and I still could use more. Most of that was for the polishers, pads, and polishes. Start with the basics, wash buckets w/grit guards, wash mitts, drying towels, and detailing towels. Then add more and get the paint correction sfuff as your budget allows. Thursday was the first time I ever tried polishing a car and I only did the first polishing step. When you saw it Friday that was all that I had done to it, no second step, sealer, or wax.
Or you can learn to live with the paint as it is and just enjoy driving it, like I WAS doing, it's much easier and cheaper!

He bought his own Adams Polishes to use with my Polisher. He actually spent more than I did, LOL.

Sorry guys I'm terrible with names, I met a couple of you guys at C5Fest at the Baymount and wanted to see if you guys where on here. One of you guys had just bought a camaro just for C5Fest. Im in the DFW area but was raised in El Paso, I'm alway visiting the family in EP and hopefully will get to to hangout with you guys sometime.

That sounds great. Just get on this thread, and see if we have anything going on while you are in town. Black14RS is the newest Camaro in our group, I don't know if that is who you are referring to. If his car was black, with silver and blue stripes that is him.
