Thanks guys!

Products are from www.tropi-care.com my buddie is a authorized dealer here in Tucson and does detaling on the side. Not all sure what he did, its a three step process...I know the second part was a swirl remover compound and the third was a good wax, forgot what he used on the first part but it looks very good, specially being a 10 year old car.

Looks great. It's hard to show reflection shots on bright red paint in the direct sun. I think the shady side will show up even better in pics!

How much does something like that cost? I'm looking at trying to get some swirl marks banished from my car. I'd like to do it myself, but I don't want to run the risk of hurting the car.

Might end up going to pull-a-part and get a hood or something to practice on too lol
