Freddy42 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Trying to remove swirls and slight orange peel from the bonnet using wet sanding, 3000 and 5000 grade. This leaves a dull finish on the clear coat. Using Meguiars Ultimate polish prior to waxing but cannot achieve a mirror finish, it is still dull under the polish. Advice appreciated.

Russ Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 You'll need a DA/polisher to bring the shine back up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biff55 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 if just trying to remove paintwork swirls theres no need for rubbing down with any grit paper , just use a liquid polishing compound , especially if only working by hand. obviously no help to the OP after the fact but may be of use to any readers that follow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
