Re: The Swirl Mistery

Now if I can apply #7 by hand I'll be set because my boss doesn't let me your power tools after I modified the lawn mower

Mike and Mike , thank you

#7 by hand, not a problem. Here's how I was taught at a Meguiar's Wednesday Night Open Garage (although there are other ways to apply/remove):

Using a foam applicator pad begin gently working #7 onto/into the paint, covering the usual 2' x 2' section. It will go on very oily at first, but as soon as you feel it start to drag against the paint stop working it. Now gently wipe over the area with a clean microfiber towel, but don't worry about removing all the excess on the first pass, just sort of break it up. Now go over the area again with the MF towel until you've removed all the excess. The area where you've applied it should look richer and glossier than the surrounding areas. Continue this process around the entire vehicle and you're done.

Since #7 is a polish you do not let it dry or haze. Since it's a pure polish it has no cleaning abilities so you don't need to work it vigorously and therefore it's quite an easy process.


And, uh, just how did you modify the lawnmower?

Thanks for the additional information.

Now regarding the lawnmower lets just say that "Tim the Tool Man" would not be even a close second, it wasn't pretty. MORE POWER ! ! ! !

Hey Mike & Mike,

I picked up #7 on the way home last night and can't wait for Saturday so that I can see the magic happen. After I wash, clay and apply #7 how often should I reapply #7 to hide the swirls on my GTI that is parked outside 7x24. Also can I apply NXT over the top of #7 of make it last until I can polish out the entire car in the spring?
