Default Pics buffing out swirls


Here is a Lamborghini Gallardo, black that had swirl problems, on occassion I will get to drive these cars, this one I did on the dealers site. I'm using a dual head cyclo, the reason is the two smaller heads are able to manuver around tight corners of some exotic cars. I used a yellow cutting pad first, with a med compound, next I switched to a green pad (polishing) my cleaner polish, final with my sealant, I could not believe how nice it turned out. Gary

Pics don't appear to be showing Gary. The dreaded "Red X"

Yep black is really hard to wax and polish right. I always get swerll marks, even after hours of buffing.
