First Swirl Removal. 56k warning.
 
This is the first major swirl removal job that I've done so far, and let me tell you it is one hell of a PITA!

What I used (in order):
Mothers Clay Bar Kit
Porter Cable 7424
First: XMT Sw remover (intermediate) w/ orange pad.
Second: XMT 360 w/ White pad
Third: Megs NXT Spray wax for extra shine.

I don't have many pics right now, because I started to lose the light, but Im pretty happy with the results so far especially for it being my first try at it.

Still trying to decide on a wax to use, I used the NXT for the time being to give it a little extra shine.

After XMT swirl remover ONLY:

Hood Before: It was so bright outside that it was actually hard to capture the swirls on camera.

After: Again Swirl remover ONLY.

Good job, now you have to keep her from putting the swirls back in so you don't have to remove them all the time. Have you tried out that natty's you posted in your other thread?

I didn't have time to do any wax other than the NXT spray because it took me about 3 hours to clay, swirl removal, and 360. I Have DP Max Wax and the Poor boys, but I just haven't decided which I want to use.
