I have one of every PBW's product... now what?

[BrendonMc]

I literally have every product PBW offers for dark vehicles. I just don't know where to begin. I have very fine swirls (that may actually be marring) that I need to polish off. I have:

PC 7424
Lake Country pads (orange, white, green, black, blue)
SSR 2.5
SSR 2
SSR 1
ProPolish
EX
Black Hole
Natty's Red

I know to start off with less abrasive polishes and pads, I'm just not sure which to choose from, or how long to polish and at what speed... any help is appreciated


And then I just bought:
Natty's Blue
S&G
QD+
QW+
Natural-looking Dressing
Bold and Bright
Wheel Sealant

As you can see, I'm a fan of PBW!

Try SSR1 and a white pad. Work a small section (maybe 2'x2') going about an inch/second, up+down, side to side and if you still have some polish left on the paint, diagonally.If it's working, continue on. If working, but slow, decide on if you are willing to put in the time to do it again. If not, go to SSR2 and the polishing pad.
It's hard to say without seeing, but this should be enough if your "very fine swirls" aren't too bad. If not, you'll need to go more aggressive. There's a good tutorial on using SSRs and a PC here by BlackYukon. That should help you more.
For maintaining, you might be able to get away with just PwC or PwS and a polishing pad. (I didn't see any PwC or PwS listed in your arsenal, though. )

Thanks man! I'm new to detailing and I want to learn the craft fast. You've been really helpful. Oh and I just ordered some PwS
