Pete91 Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Machine or by hand? If it's by hand you'll be there for a loooong time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James827 Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 get a DA on the case, best thing i did with my black lupo.my mate machined it with light compound and i just topped it up after every wash with some Auto glym super resin polish! doing like 50 miles a day it was never going to be perfect, but it was really good everywhere exept roof and bonnet ahah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huw Pugh Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Dont bother spending your money on any "swirl removers" unless you're going to machine polish it. You can get some products with fillers that will mask the marks a little but you're better off machine polishing if the marks are bothering you.

jamiea7x Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 machine polish and get some filler based polishes for black cars, becase no matter how well yo look after it, paint is soft and it iwll return, bt the fillers in the polishes will do a good job of masking them a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defcon5 Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 By hand, I'd use Autoglym SRP followed by Poorboys black hole than Nattys blue. Should come to about £30 altogether and last years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeA Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 I say before myself, black hole cuts more, srp can be used to finish it.If I was you I'd be looking at ultimate compound.Or just getting me to do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeA Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Srp is the same from my experience, could cut better with a spoon. Uses lots of fillers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
