I didn't know what I was getting into when I bought a black car, nevermind the fact that I drive my car in the winter and it's seen that snow brush way too many times. Needless to say the swirl marks are a little out of control.

So that being said, does anyone want to help me out with polishing these things out? I suppose I could go to a professional, but I'm sure a few of you have a porter cable and a skill in this area. I'd also like to use it also as a learning experience as well so If I ever move out of my condo I can start doing it myself.

Compenstation would come in the form of cash (has to be reasonable) & of course beer. Or, if people have gotten their cars professionally done... how much $ am I looking at here?

It's a LONG process - figure about a full day if you want to do it right - figure you have to

wash the car
clay the car
use swirl remover or some aggressive compound
then wax it

i think it took me 5+ hours to do erick's car way back when

pros i would say between 200 to 300





prices for pros range between 200-300

I have the equipment, but not the expertise to do this. I'm hoping to get some training with the rotary buffer I have since it'll cut the time needed to polish a car dramatically.
