Swirl remover?
I've been looking at Menzerna 3d3.02 and Poorboys ssr2.5. My car is bmw sapphire black with light to moderate swirl marks. I'll will be using a machine buffer.

It's the orange 1, I'm using the pads that came with it, Blue Red and White and microfibre cloths. Any ideas what speed I should be using with Menzerna 3d3.02

i have the blue one and iirc it operates between 600rpm and about 2000? with the settings shown as 1 - 5. with the rd3.02 i start spreading on setting 2 with a medium pad and work until it starts to go clear. then a little spritz of qd i find helps at this stage, work up through speed 3 then 4. once clear a couple of passes and then back down from 4 to 3 to 2. buff off and check. i then find that it's ready for the finishing pad and a lighter polish or another go of the rd3.02 followed by either poorboys black hole or white diamond depending on the car colour and then top with a good paste wax.

Nice one Matt, and cheers for helping with the advice. It's almost always worth following up with 85RD on a polishing pad if you have the time, as this imparts a lot of extra wetness, and takes care of any holograms left behind during the compounding stage with RD3.02.
