    Is there a tool available?

    Hey Guys,
    After using waterless car wash many times I noticed there is A LOT of buffing involved to get all the waterless wash off (the car being black doesn't help either ). Is there some kind of power buffer i can get that will do the job without being too aggresive? I.e. Gentle enough to use everytime i use the waterless wash?

    Cheers

    Would you consider an orbital buffer with a very soft pad?

    You don't reckon an orbital would leave marks Branko? Depends on how soft a pad you can get I guess.

    I think they have a swirl remover product there somewhere, you may want to get it done professionally though depending on how severe it is.

    I think if you match the appropriate pad with a fine enough product it should be ok, my VR6 is horridly covered in swirl marks. And its a shame because the paint is so nice, on most of the car that is

    DMS dan should be able to help, PM him.
