Message Except the "SwirlX"..

I ended up using the "Ultimate Compound" w/ a polishing pad instead. (gave similar results).

I never realized how many different ways that different detailers have to achieve similar results.

After wet sanding with 2000grit.

I used a

-cutting pad w/ Ultimate rubbing compound
-Polishing pad w/ Ultimate rubbing compound
-Finishing pad w/ Ultimate Polish

Still need to apply wax.. which I will do by hand..

I think I spent about $300 total buying all the buffs, pads, compounds, etc etc.. plus the buffer/polisher.

I will definitely be investing in a nice Makita or similar.. this Harbor freight one is fine for learning with.. but the speed control sucks.. I had to constantly change it and just listen to the sound of the motor and apply/release pressure to get the RPM that I wanted.
