We had a thread a while back about removing vs. filling swirls and I have a question: Suppose you have a car with high swirl visibility like black or red and you actually remove the swirls using DACP, Menzerna Intensive and Final or some similar combo. Now you`ve removed some paint and the finish is perfect. How long is it going to take before the finish gets swirled again? Bad weather, washing, driving, in-between doses of QD- on swirl-prone paints, I think it would be reasonable to say that if your car isn`t garaged and you actually drive it, maybe 2 months? Maybe i`m wrong here, but if you remove those swirls 6 times a year you`re going to be in trouble in short order. Maybe, for people who enjoy working on cars, it would actually be a better idea to remove the swirls after the winter and then go with products like 3M Swirl Remover to just fill them for the rest of the year. I would think you could safely polish with a product like that every two months without really removing any significant amount of paint and have a virtually flawless finish. What do you think?
