Default yikes, swirls

I am seeing a bit more little swirl these days. Will Z5 get rid of them?

I don't know first hand but they say Z5 is supposed to take care of the swirls. You have some? Let me know how it works 'cause I may get some. I've always had 'em.

Yeah, I have Z5. I used Z5 and ZFX on my mom's Accord and it worked great. I think I had a bit of dirt on my wool wash mit on the last wash, just noticed it on the perfect light angle. I really don't have time to do another couple coats of Z5 so will have to wait till Spring.

Zaino can get rid of swirls and even minor scratches, I had some really noticeable scratches on the front bumper when I got my car, after 5 coats of Zaino, you can't tell that they were even there.

You'll never get rid of all the swirls, but Z5 sure helps. It all depends on how the light is reflecting off the paint, which determines how many swirls and scratches you see. I've found that a liberal coat of Z5 followed by Z6 applied vertically on vertical panels, and straight side to side on flat panels works great in fooling the eyes in thinking that there are no scratches, when in fact, there may well be some.

Good luck, and let me know if you need a hand. I'd be more than willing to help.
Cheers
Asif

Thanks, you need the exact light angle to see mine on the doors since it is a pretty light colour.

For the doors, should it be applied side to side or up and down?
