Detailed the car The paint had a good amount swirls and the horizontal panels had oxidation as seen in the first pic. I used Meguiars 105 and 205 combo with a Porter Cable and Lake Country orange and white pads. I am by no means pro detailer and I'm sure a pro could get even better results but the difference is night and day.
After being washed and clayed, masked up ready to begin
After polishing and before a coat of wax. Lots of dust!
All said and done in direct sunlight.

Never heard of it. I'm not very update with detailing products though. Knowing the condition of the paint on my car and reading many reviews I chose a kit based on that. This was my first time ever using a Porter Cable on a car.

The 105/205 took care of pretty much everything except a few small heavy oxidation spots on the hood. I'll probably be able to remove those with wet sanding.
