[QUOTE="Qwk GT, post: 11773893, member: 72096"] Hey all, So I've always washed and waxed my cars and have always thought they come out pretty good. I've decided I want to go a step further and could use some guidance. My normal procedure would just be a simple wash, then wax. I've been looking a Griots (not sure the exact name) machine buffer/polisher. Mainly going this route because they are local and I can just go pick it up, and I've always wanted one of these. The car in question is my 03 Cobra, with 8k miles. For a black car, the paint is actually in really good condition IMO. There are some slight swirl marks that I'd like to get rid of. So far I'm thinking clay it, seal then wax. Although I was thinking of some polish. Not sure what to get, and don't feel I need anything too abrasive. The swirls are hard to see right now, very slight, and don't want to get into the clear too much if not needed. Any input on polish? I was going to get a package from griots that comes with a bunch of pads, but any input on different pads would be appreciated as well. Any other general input also welcome. All I have at the moment is Mothers clay and meguires gold class. Thinking of switching up the wax as well, its ok but looking for something better. [/QUOTE]
