Default if you do it by hand, not much chance for error. always polish a 'clean' surface...use clay

then polish, optional glaze and a wax.

if you've never used an oribital machine, best to stay away from it until you get used to polishing by hand. check out the detailing forum here on audiworld...some good tips.

wax w/pinnacle souveran for summer n FMJ for winter
