So i polished the swirly hazy wood interior trim on my car and it came out mirror like and flawless using Ultimate Polish. problem is with the wood steering wheel after i sanded with 2000 to remove some fine scratches i noticed that some sections wont become mirror like finish no matter how i apply the polish. There still seems to be swirl marks. Really really light but still there and not like the trim that wasn't sanded which like i said is like a mirror. Any help would be appreciated on how i can fix this. Thanks

Re: wood trim interior
anyone?
would rubbing compound help before the polish maybe its not aggressive enough. I find that strange because the polish alone really cleaned up the unsanded clear coat on the wood trim. I notice the swirls are not scratches from the sandpaper they are cylindrical

Re: wood trim interior
Well, if you sanded it first, the wheel would require something more aggressive than UP to remove the sanding marks.
Try UC first, then follow with UP. Either that, or use a finer grit sandpaper first, so the sanding marks are not so deep.Originally posted by BluelineI own a silver vehicle and a black vehicle owns me. The black one demands attention, washing, detailing, waxing and an occasional dinner out at a nice restaurant. The silver one demands nothing and it looks just fine. I think the black vehicle is taking advantage of me, and the silver car is more my style. We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.

Davey's suggestion to use UC followed by UP is spot on, and it would be our recommendation as well.Michael Stoops

Re: wood trim interior
While i was polishing out my headlights i had bought some 3000 grit trizact which was recommended somewhere can't remember. I figured id try it also on the wood trim followed by UC and UP and wow.. i started to put a dab of polish on the wood trim and the depth of it tricked me and i thought the drop was dropping beneath the clear coat. Pretty amazing when you use the right products you get great results...
I tried using 2000 grit on my side mirrors awhile back and they left similar swirls/sand marks that i couldn't get out with rubbing compound i plan on trying the 3000 grit to help with that process also
thanks for the tips guys
great site and products
