Swirl Removal

[Brad7]

What product would you recommend for removing light to medium swirl marks and light scratches. I was thinking some m105 or UC. Opinions???

Re: Swirl Removal

Try the least aggressive first. I am assuming you are doing this by hand. Start out with Scratch-x. Remember to use a lot of passion behind the pad. (elbow grease).

It may take a couple of applications to get to a level that your satisfied with.

Then if there is no improvement, step up to the ultimate compound.

Good luck.

PLEASE BE AWARE. Doing by hand takes TIME. Remember small area at a time and maybe doing atleast 3 applications per spot. Maybe a 6x6 area. I thought i had determination/stubborness to do my car by hand and gave up after doing half the hood. Looks good but for as much work as it took i figured i'd be better off waiting until i get a da. O yea, the car i was working on was white and it hid most of the swirls to begin with.

Re: Swirl Removal

I have been trying to remove swirls and scratches by hand on my 2009 Murano and scratchx or swirlx do not seem to be working!

3 applications and nothing....doing back side on rear door by window....any suggestions would help as im about to give up.

Re: Swirl Removal

It takes a lot of elbow grease to remove swirls , it takes time and your arm will should feel like its gonna fall out after your done. A product like Ultimate Compound is more aggressive but it will also be more effective and easier on your arm .

Re: Swirl Removal

I eventually got my car looking pretty good with some UC. It took me about 3 applications on the entire car. I cant wait till i have enough money to get myself a DA

Re: Swirl Removal

Hi all,

Im new here and need a small help as im not too sure which of the following 3 product is the least agressive and so on: SwirlX, scratchx 2.0 or UC? The reason I asked is my car is full of swirls (not too sure how bad it is) and I started working with ScratchX 2.0 but did not seems to work so far (even when I followed the proper way on you tube). So Im kinda wanting to know where does ScratchX 2.0 stands in terms of the agressiveness before im moving on to the stronger product.

I appreciate your feedback. Thanks.

Least aggressive to most aggressive are SwirlX, ScratchX 2.0 then Ultimate Compound.

Are you working by hand or DA?

SwirlX - mild
ScratchX 2.0 - medium
Ultimate Compound - strong

What are you working on? Working by hand I take it?
