Hi guys, not been on here before but really need some advice on the best way to get the paint work up to immaculate. I have swirls all over the paint work. It a black metallic paint and its doing my head in. Was advised to get dodo juice from the states but i need it before then as the cars in the show at Santa Pod on the 5th and 6th June. Sorry for waffling. Its a blond thing
TIA

Dodo Juice is English, so don't worry about getting it from the States, Mel.

Pay a local pro detailer to do the car. Then you have the easier job of maintaining it. You can look for someone suitable on Detailing World.

Lime Prime and Scratch X are similar in the respect they are both abrasive to knock back the swirls by hand or machine in LP's case, also.
I'd say if you went with the LP, you're going to need some IPA/Panel Wipe to remove the mineral oils left behind, before laying down the Auto-balm.
Easier to a degree, to go with AG SRP instead as the AB's cleaners will remove SRP's fillers, replacing with its own.

That's it - no need for ?????? as well
