How is that stuff for dealing with spiderwebs and buffer swirls in the paint? Maybe I can salvage the hood from what the dealer did to it.

I use Meguires stuff. They have an AWESOME forum for detailing, although I really like the one here too. :)

That looks good bro. Take some pics for us in the sun with the sun on the paint, Im curious to see your swirls.

You too LMas, Id like to see yours because its white. BTW the second pic in your sig cracks me up.

Skrap: What did you use for your sig pic? I have never wanted a black L as much as I have latley since Ive been getting more into the detail side of this hobby.

It would do swirls like childs play. Check out Stewart's Before and after. He's done Steps 2 & 3 and stll has #4 & 5 to go.

britemax looks great!! but i still stick to Zaino only..

heres a pic from back angle.. zaino wax

Might as well get a can of 'PLEDGE'. It'll shine like hell, and last about as long as the Zaino too. Britemax contains NO silicones so the stuff lasts.

Those pics look great. Just to clarify what I meant here are a couple of pics of my bed cover.

For white paint it looks pretty damn good in the shade, oh this pic is really dark for some reason:

But in the sun (with the sun itself reflecting off the paint) you can see it aint perfect (it was overcast too):

Im not sure I believe any claims of a product removing swirls w/o polishing hardcore with a PC or something similar. I know some products can temporarily fill in scratchs and swirls.

slvrlightning, did you put the Britemax on by hand, or did you use a buffer? It looks like it did a great job, Silver looks SSOOOO Good when you put a nice Shine on it!!!! :coolman:

Not by hand I have a Porter Cable 7424 I bought as a kit from Chris. That tool is what removes swirls, no way in hell my paint would be this smooth by hand. Thanks for the compliments guys!
