I have noticed some light swirls on my black g37, ive only had it a few days. Would a product such as Meguiar's Step 1 Deep Crystal Cleaner do the trick if i just applied it with a mf cloth?

 

Hey buddy i would really consider buying this just because i have used it and it works great and its a really good price too!

Meguiar's Direct SwirlX

 

Any "nonabrasive" product you put on swirls or scratches by hand will NOT remove them, only hide them temporarily and make them less noticeable. After a wash or two they will be right where you left them and as noticeable as ever, especially noticeable on black. You can also use a glaze to fill them in and hide them, that's pretty much what the product Infiniti93 mentioned is.

To remove them will require machine (DA or rotary) polishing with an abrasive polish. If they are light you can use a finishing polish, the heavier the swirls are the more aggressive polish/pad combination will be required.

 

okay good info. What would you recommend as 2-3 good glaze products (besides mequires swirlX because i wanna give a few a try). As well is using a glaze + polish a good idea/produce a better result? or would it basically do nothing? Also would polishing by hand with an abrasive product help with cutting down on swirl marks? or is the machine necessary no matter what (besides the use of glaze).

One product i found called Mothers Sealer and Glaze, how effective would that be?

 

Abrasive polishing by hand isn't going to really be able to improve it. Abrasive polishes are designed to be used with more pressure and heat than you can produce by hand, that's why they are formulated for machine polishing.

I don't know anything personally about Mother's Sealer and Glaze. I'm not personally a fan of the brand, but I don't know anything about that particular product.

I have some great glazes that I've used on my black G.

For a BO car, I like PBW Black Hole, Menzerna FTG, and especially my new favorite, Blackfire Gloss Enhancing Polish. It says polish, but ist really a glaze. It looks very deep and wet on black, almost like a good coat of wax. Easy to apply.

You can't find any of these at the local Pep Boys or Wal-Mart, you'll have to order them online. But IMO they are miles better than most stuff you'll find locally. They are the type of products pros use.

 

okay cool, thanks alot for the help Betty, you always know what goin on .

 

I've learned a lot of stuff the hard way, no reason for somebody else to do it. And I detail. A lot.

 

Thanks Betty you taught me a lesson too lol. I use SwirlX and i didnt see any of the swirls after a wash today but ill probably go with what you said... Thanks alot buddy!!!

 

i regret getting my car in black.. i dont want to go through the countless number of handwashes per week and $$$$ plus its a lease. not to mention its spring here in nyc so pollen galore and dust. i miss having my silver colored car.

 

Black looks AMAZING when its clean, terrible when its dirty. I guess thats the trade off. If i could go back, i would probably get that blue color, not athens blue but the other one.

 

Black + Infiniti paint = CRY
