Need to pick a polish - what do I need?

The Prima Swirl I have has apparently gone off after six years. I need a new one. To be used with a PC 7336 and a variety of pads. What do you guys think?


Here's the challenge:

 

What car is this? What year is it?

 

Power Finish

 

"gone off" means what?

 

@Chaseme: 1994 Jaguar XJS in Glacial White

@belair: After reading the TOGWT thread I went and my bottle was collapsed in which apparently one of the keys that the product is no longer good.

 

i would look at optimum

 

Shook the Swirl for 15 plus minutes and it stayed rather liquid. When I put it on a pad, it was the right color but liquid with a glob of more solid stuff in the middle.

 

Any more recommendations? Phil recommended D300 followed by Menz SF4000

 

Cant go wrong with those two.

 

I use Menzerna PF2500 as a one step for light colors with great results. Following up with SF4000 would look amazing if you wanted to buy two products.

 

This thread is exactly what I was looking for. I have a BSM bmw x3 that I bought used and its got a bunch of swirls and a little hazing. I recently bought a GG polisher from Phil and was wanting to know what polish I should buy. Would the D300/SF4000 combo work on black metallic paint as well?

 

I'll let others reply to be sure but from what I've read, BMW black is often very soft as opposed to other BMW paints - or any paints from what I've read. That might change the dynamic some in what you want to get.

 

does it make a difference if I have black sapphire metallic as opposed to jet black?

 

Yup! The Black Sapphire Metallic tends to be harder compared to the softer jet black. And yes that combo would work.

 

awesome thanks.
