is there such a thing of cleaning your car and polishing it too much? lol! ive been trying the 105/205 combo didnt really work on my car, i picked up the new DA microfiber kit and i wana try this out. i just want to make sure i will not damage my paint if i continuously polish my car. the shine is just addictive!

Re: too much polish?
Why didnt it work?
What gave you trouble?
As far as too much... #105 with the MF kit would be pretty strong. Wouldnt want to be doing it often.2017 Subaru WRX Premium - WR Blue -
Re: too much polish?
ive only done 105 once then followed up with 205 on a white pad. and it didnt cut it. i still got swirls and holograms it seems. i wana try the new kit i bought to make my finish perfect...Comment

Re: too much polish?
compounding on new cars is very damaging ive heared. should only really polish. with that info i would just give the finishing wax a try on the car to remove swirls ive also read somewhere it would have some cut.Comment

Re: too much polish?
Different companies terms make things worse to figure out.
For Meguiars, pure polishing means just oils. But different levels of cleaning means how much swirls can be removed.
Using the new kit and the new products would not be a problem if #105 didnt help... But i would be wondering how you used the #105? Odd for it to do nothing? If you tried using it on too big of an area at a time, not cleaning the pad often, etc, these problems will be the same with the MF.2017 Subaru WRX Premium - WR BlueComment

Re: too much polish?
i used 105 on a white, orange, yellow pad. i bumped up the pads to increase the aggressiveness because i was getting very minimal results. ive been reading mazda has hard clear....then read that it has soft clear.... ive also washed,clayed, 205 white pad to a door panel and it still had swirls. =(Comment

Re: too much polish?
Cant help you with a Mazda... do you have any certain scratch/swirl you can watch... see if it is being removed, improved, etc? Or moved around?2017 Subaru WRX Premium - WR BlueComment

Re: too much polish?
The more aggressive product you use,the more its going to swirl(and the more clear is being removed).If your paints not too bad,like deep scratches ,or heavy oxidation,heavy compound isnt really needed.If youre trying to remove the swirls left over from the compound,and the polish leaves swirls,try a hand polish/glaze and wax afterwards.Again,im not sure what kind of polisher you are using.Also,make sure your pads are not getting gummed up,and the surface is clean and cool since heat creates swirls also.Comment
