PHP Warning: Use of undefined constant VBA_SCRIPT - assumed 'VBA_SCRIPT' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in ..../includes/functions_navigation.php(802) : eval()'d code on line 1 Swirl marks from buffing
Color depends on manufacturer..... W7000 (red) is the one i use for cutting and a W9000 (cream) is a finishing pad... use that with the good wax. I'm talking about the meguiars system here. Just jump on their website, they should have a step by step process.
You need to use a black {fine& soft } pad with a swirl mark remover {3M make1
before you use a wax polish otherwise you are just filling the swirls with wax
and they will return after the boat has been washed a few times. What speed was the buff doing whilst buffing {the slower the better creates less heat}
As this factor can also contribute to swirl marks and holograms
cheers Mal
When I was using the cutting compound the buffer was running at around 2000 - 2500 rpm. Which is what it recommended on back of the bottle.
Anyhow I purchased a black finishing pad and went over it with the meguiars high gloss polish and it seems to have taken most of the swirls out. Then I followed with wax.
I think no matter what I do that lambswool pad is going to leave swirl marks, funnily enough that pad is the recommended pad for use with the 3m compound. I had to run it at that speed simply because I was trying to remove the scratches left from wet sanding in some areas.
I will post on that forum though because it would be helpful to know how to avoid those swirl marks in the future
