This week I hafve been driving a rent acar because my jetta is in the shop for collision work. This is my first accident and I took advantage of having a rent a car to practice polishing on. So I set out to the supply store and picked up Meguiars DACP and Swirl free polish.
After I used the two products and two applications by hand with a terry towel, I was hoping for a clean surface with no swirls but that wasnt the case. Granted its shiny and about 90% swirl free but not 100% like I was hoping. At this point, i took the rotary to it using hte same two Meguiars products but, still, there are some swirls left in the finish.
The car is a new Silver Cavalier (Chevy) and my only answer is the paint is f*****. This answer may be premature to trying a good compound. Only, I did not try this aggressive of a step onthis new rent a car due to my experience with the last 1993 Chevy Cavalier I detailed. I compounded the sh** out of it and got the same result, swirls. Especially on the trunk and roof.
It dirves me mad. I work so hard for the customer and the car isn't right. What could be the problem in this situation?
