Welcome to Autopia :up



I would start by using the SSR2 and then evaluate your progress. Until the paint is fixed I would not really worry about wax's
 
welcome to autopia. :welcome



step 1 - wash with meg's NXT wash.



step 2 - ditto to what lowejackson said - start off with the poorboy's SSR 2.5. depending on how bad the swirls and spider webs markings are, you might want to try it using with a polishing pad first, and see how effective the SSR 2.5 and polishing pad is. remember to start off with the least aggressive combo, move the PC slowly over the paint, make multiple passes, and work on one area until you are satisfied with how it's coming out.

with SSR 2.5, it is possible you might get light hazing, which looks like light, mini swirls. if you do, use SSR 1 with a polishing pad to get rid of them.



step 3 - once you polished your car out to your satisfaction, you want to either seal or wax your car. is your EX-P the new formula? if so, i would use that next, and do 2 coats, 24-hours apart. remember to apply it thinly.



step 4 - 24-hours after you applied the 2nd coat of EX-P, apply the Natty's Wax. you can do 2 coats if you want to.



step 5 - admire your work. :xyxthumbs



good luck and happy detailing! :dance
