They got some stuff in the 100$ range that some what got my attention, i really wonder if its all that much better then a standard good carnauba paste? It would be hard to get me to switch from the old school mother paste wax in a tin. I just love the smell of the stuff.
Yea the 3m perfect-it "ultrafine machine polish" stage 3, is really designed for a swirl free finish on darker colored vehicles, Meguiars probably has a equivalent. You could most definitely just do the first 2 stages. I only got the 3rd stage because i did a guys golf cart with this dark graphite titanium paint, very similar to the x-fires graphite colour, and the 3rd stage was like looking into a mirror. I just couldn’t believe it myself. lol.
Im going to guess that the Meguiars stuff is more readily available to end users then trying to get the 3m stuff. Both are awesome and professional level products. But both do cost around $150-350 to get the whole system up and running with the pads, and different compounds, rotary buffer. But a little goes a long way. Youll end up being your local neighbourhood detail and shine guy.
Oh yea, one thing, if possible try and stick with a foam pad. If you go with a wool, be carefull.
I need to get sometime to give mr srt6 a nice going over. Swirlmarks out the butt. Previous owner must've taken it through some horrific carwashes
