I tried removing swirls from my silver 1999 E320 Benz using 106FF with orange LC and Final Polish with white LC but no luck!!! I think it might have actualy added swirls.. Any help? Thanks
 
No, this is a 1999 benz, ceramiclear is 2005+ i think. Please, any help is appreciated, i just did 106ff with yellow pad and no luck either, SWIRLS STILL THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!

106FF isn't the most abrasive polish...are you using the PC. Speed 6 and slow overlapping passes?

Yes, Im using PC. I spread it then use 3 to rub it in and then work it on 5..
 
You need a more aggressive polish first of all. 106ff is a mild finishing polish. if your looking to remove swirls you need to step up the polishes. What else do you have available to you at the moment??



Also, spreading at speed 3 is fine, but when your working the polish you need to bump it up to 6.

all i have right now is FP, 106ff, and meguairs scratch x. If i get IP, would that take care of it? or SIP?
 
Well I cant really answer that question without seeing the car but IP or SIP is definitely a step in the right direction.



Technique is also hugely important as well. Slow arm movement, overlapping passes, breaking down the polish correctly, etc, etc....



MB's are known to have rock hard clear so take your time. You might want to consider smaller 4" pads for your PC as well. They have more bite.



Just keep us posted and we are glad to help!

Fazzl, the best combo for what?



You talking about compound/finishing combo??



Well there is OHC/OP, Menz SIP/106ff, SSR2.5/SSR1



Out of the 3 you put up there I would go w/ IP and 106ff.

Best combo would be SIP po83 and 106ff!



A pc is only capable of removing so much, but give SIP a try.



106ff is a super finish polish. Using fp after is useless.



SIP and 106ff on rotary will do 95% of the details. Look at my avatar pic, it is SIP and 106ff done by rotary. No lsp. Had a dull finish with tons of embedded water spots.
 
the best combo for removing my swirls etc.



What if SIP is too strong though? I guess ill sell the FP and get SIP and keep 106FF.
 
there you go, that combo will do some good things for you!! rydawg knows his stuff for sure.



Hey Ryan, by the way, did you use SIP with a foam pad on your rotary or wool? If wool, which one?



Thanks



off to bed now.

It's not a compound. It's actually a very creamy liquid that you can not even feel the abrasives. The are so tiny, but very sharp and precise. It will be fine on a pc and you will not have a problem, except for trying to remove the swirls.

I used an orange wolfgang pad (LC). You will not even need wool with this stuff. Another member came over my house with his car and he brought a foamed wool pad and we tried it with 3.02. Did great, but under halogens it did marr, but removed the defects easy from his black vette. The marrs came out with 3.02 on an orange pad. We should have taken pics..
