My car only 2 month old (metal gray), but it fail in light test, can see a lot swirls with light shining at it at certain angle,  no idea how to remove it, any compound can first those swirl?  rclxub.gif i using Hand waxing.
I bought a cheap  wax sponge  for waxing....but it did more swirl than prevent when apply a little pressure while waxing.

to wash and wax..just use microfiber cloth but please avoid those synthetic one because it doesn't work, the same goes with chamois cloth too..i've test with all sort of sponge before for wash and wax, but in the end microfiber cloth is still the best..

i have use PG sealant during my early years of car ownership, i choose it because it's quite cheap ( usually come with claykit also, now no more dy) and work wonders to seal any scratch mark made by my neighbours cats and easy to use..

but the problem with this PG is that after using it for some time, i noticed the colour has fade a lot especially under hot sun compared to other similar car( same year& colour) shakehead.gif

Since then i start using NXT2.0, and i think it less effective to seal scrath mark but as long as it doesnt eat my paint i'm ok with it, and another thing is a bottle of NXT2.0 really can last long( bought it since early last year, still have another 1/2 bottle, use 1 time a month)

Looking foward to try meguairs polish & wax next..

really? how come the PG sealant can tear off the paint, maybe it polymer's surface made your car look faded in bright side.
i also using nxt 2.0 and this the best car wax on market.
Almost a month now and water beading still there with wash twice a week and maintain with quick wax. and compare side by side my car are less swirl than other's black car, this made me proud!  biggrin.gif

it's because when using the PG, i noticed my MF cloth had turn darker (my car is dark blue), my first thought maybe it's just a dirt, but to my suprise when i apply this PG on my father's white car, my MF cloth had white color on it, hence the conclusion ..
