Re: Not sure what I'm looking at...

Alright, got to try the SwirlX today on a test spot and it did the trick. Unfortunately my pad picked up a piece of super fine grit and left small half circle marks in the paint. The pad had been used before and also seemed to have retained some moisture from it's last cleaning. The marks were removed with a fresh pad but I'm wondering what drying techniques others are using for their pads. I ran mine through 2-3 cycles in the dryer with some MF towels and seemed dry when I took them out. When I took the pad out of it's ziplock bag today it had moisture inside.

2.0 Buffing Pads can go into the dryer without any problem. Just low heat and no dryer tissues.

Try to leave pad's ziplock bag slightly open to let the air circulate. It should solve the moisture build up.

Pleased to hear swirl x did the trick .Did you try it on a finishing pad as well as the refines it even further?

With ref to pads I have had the same troube. I have resulted to putting my pads on the radiators to dry. But as I have a fair few spare now. I dont really have any issues as I rotate the pads. So this problem never really occurs now.

Didn't get a chance to try the finishing pad but I was amazed by the SwirlX results in the sunlight. I'm gonna go over the entire car again with the SwirlX to improve the finish further.

As I mentioned earlier your problem sounded like mine. Thanks Mr Stoops
