| dishwashing liquid is BAD!
use a soft detergent designed for cars, and preferably by the same company that made your wax, i have found meguires wax lasts longer when i use the softwash gel.
how to remove those swirls, depends how much clear coat you have left.
you may be able to buff them out and end up with a smooth gloss again. best thing to do would be start a test patch somwhere hard to see. with meguires scratch X, work it in. then polish the area, then wax it. see the result, how big was the improvement. wax can make a big improvement in appearance in fine swirls, however it is only masking the problem. to completly fix it you need to remove the swirls through polishing. |
