Swirled my trunk...

I used Meguiars foam pads and #26 wax to wax my car and started at the trunk about a week ago. It made a swirled mess out of it before I went out and bought new ones. One of my relatives came over today to wash her Sienna and now I know the reason why that happened. She uses those to wash her van including body, tires, wheels, etc. I know she comes over maybe once every two or three months to do this but I didn't know she uses those pads.

Klasse AIO hasn't really helped.

I'm guessing I need something like this?

But what's the difference between that and these:

http://www.adamspolishes.com/p-97-sw...over-16oz.aspx

I do have the Porter Cable buffer kit from the group buy from about a year ago...

what kind of pads do you have with the PC? i'd say just get the meguiar's 83 on a yellow pad and it should get rid of the swirls quite well.

Pretty sure the pads that these are the pads that I have: http://www.autopia-carcare.com/sonussfxpads.html

I have all three pads.

That's where the kit I have came from during the group buy. They don't seem to sell the same kit with the PC any more though.

Our Fine Machine Polish is built for the PC but it isn't as good of a cutter as Swirl and Haze Remover. What you can do is pick up an aggressive pad (like our orange pad) and do a 50/50 mix of Swirl and Haze Remover with the Fine Machine Polish. The Revive Polish you see is for hand polishing as it goes on and comes off easy enough to do by hand.
