^^ To YOU only.

I have the clay, very good. It works like charm, have spare to let go. RM200 per piece. Friend-ly price to ICE fan~

I don't think polish with hand will add swirl mark, it all depend on when you are polishing make sure the surface is clean. Some thought that after washing the car, they can immediately polish (Most of the time, by hand).

so i take it that if you ensure the surface and polishing medium is clean, by hand or by machine isn't an issue? it's just simpler/easier by machine?

By polishing, I believe it will basically remove some of the clear coat where the scratches are. Using machine, you can have more even force onto the surface to get the more desire result.

Can say with machine, the result would be better, also kerja cepat skit.

I do think the polishing liquid is different as well, as in for hand use or machine use.

Still learning but to answer noob like you, piece of cake.

So, the clay ok not? Hand deliver to your office tomorrow.

if not mistaken, you can get it from Hypercoat directly. Go like the Meguiar's Malaysia facebook and keep a lookout for their promotions. I bought most of my stuff at their booth during the COTY2012 exhibition (20% off). they brought most of the required items for all 5 steps, including all the kits.
