    If you're looking to get the best of the best for your finish...

    Wash, clay, ultimate compound (could use M105, but I hear it has a shorter working period than UC), ultimate polish or M205 (your choice) , and Ultimate Paste Wax is what I would do to get that black looking amazing.
    As for the pads, I have only used meguiars yellow and black pads so I can only recommend those to you. They work great.

    I don't have much knowledge with D/As, but I know that speed range will suite you, although the low of 4000 seems a little high. Other than that, it should be fine.

    Oh, and as for the polisher, here's the link to it http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-...-430943057.htm
    Would this be fine?

    Swirls and scratches on my black car

    Hi everyone,

    Been using a bunch of random Meguiars products over the years because the auto stores here don't quite sell the full range of any Meguiars range. (i.e. bits of Mirror Glaze, bits of consumer line).
    Anyhows, just bought myself a black S2000, with swirls and scratches, as usual...



    and



    shows those swirls and scratches on close-up, and some reflection that it has.

    I'm looking to buy a DA polisher (Ryobi Polisher 750R), it has variable speed from 4000rpm to 7000rpm, and most likely LCC pads.

    The current products I have are:

    Soft Wash Gel
    Deep Crystal System Step 1 Paint Cleaner
    Scratch X 2.0
    Cleaner Wax

    #2 Fine-Cut Cleaner
    #7 Show Car Glaze
    NXT Wax
    Hi-Tech Yellow Wax
    Quick Detailer

    Now, I want the deepest, luscious glossy black one can get.
    Can anyone advice me, along with the paint condition shown, as well as my current products, and extra products (either M105, M205, UC, UPC), as well as pad combinations to bring my car up to the level I require?
    I would also need a sealant am I right?

    Cheers for the help guys
    Nicholas
