[QUOTE="NastyGT500, post: 16398350, member: 75220"] What do you want to achieve? Do you want a shiny car? Do you want a swirl free car? The book can be overwhelming, but has excellent info in it. I'd definitely clay the car(s). It is as easy/straight forward as you think. Use plenty of lube and decontaminate your paint. It will look and feel better afterwards, however it will not do anything about your swirls/scratches. You could then go ahead and just wax/seal/etc afterwards and see how it looks and if you are happy with it. If you are not, you could always try your hand at paint correction. Just take it slow and steady and rely on your book when you need to. You can always ask questions here as well (may not get quick responses). With your gear you will be 'safe' to attempt it, however, just start with the polish and polish pads first and see what results you get before going to the more aggressive pads/compound. SO DON'T BE AFRAID TO GIVE IT A TRY! ALWAYS START WITH THE LEAST AGGRESSIVE METHOD FIRST (rule to live by) What color is your '90? It may be single stage paint. If so you will need many more pads. Hope this helps! [/QUOTE]
