I have a charcoal grey Acura 2005 TSX that I have freshly washed and clayed. I noticed it had some swirl marks and I am in the mood to take them out.



I ended up buying the following items:

Sonus Perfect Shine Kit

Sonus SFX Polisher Kit

http://www.autopia-carcare.com/son-sfxpol-kit.html



I have the following questions:



Questions #1

Since the paint is in relatively (1 year old and feels as smooth as glass without any waxing) good condition with just very light swirls should i just start with SFX 2 all around the car and use SFX 1 only if certain swirls dont come out? Or start with SFX 1 and then move on to SFX 2? I ask this because i dont want to thin the paint for no reason and i dont know the cutting power in this product. Is it ok to just use SFX 1 all around the car or is this just over kill?



Question #2

After using SFX 2... which one should i use or at least WHEN should i use each one? And what is the difference?

Sonus SFX-3 Final Finish Polish

or

Sonus Paintwork Cleanser

http://www.autopia-carcare.com/son-400.html

or

Klasse All-In-One

http://www.autopia-carcare.com/kus-kla-10.html

(The instructions say to use Klasse All-In-One which is the one im most likely going to use but i just want to know what the difference is)



Question #3

I have the Porter Cable 7424 dual-action polisher and am using the Entire SONUS SFX Kit.

What speed should i set my PC when i am using.



SFX 1 Pad with SFX 1 Liquid

SFX 2 Pad with SFX 2 Liquid

SFX 3 Pad with Klasse All-In-One

SFX 3 Pad with P21S Carnauba Wax

SFX 3 Pad with DAS Buffing Bonnet



Question #4

Can i or should i use a NEW SFX 3 Pad for Waxing with the P21S Carnauba Wax?



Question #5

I have a tiny chip in the paint right next to my license plate that is about the size of a pea. It is now rusted so i now i have to worry about fixing this. My main question is should i fix it (sand it down and add touch up paint) before or after polish my whole car?



P.S. I know its hard to give opinions without pictures.. ill try to get them up soon.



Thanks in Advance

Start with the SFX 2, and if needed, SFX 1, but Acura paint is relatively soft and easy to correct, so the SFX 2 should work. If the finish is hazy/micromarred, then use the SFX 3 after the corrective steps were done. Then Klasse AIO then P21s.

Answer to Question #1

Start with SFX 2 and only use SFX 1 in areas where SFX 2 didnt work
