Well.... :lol:

Rubbin coumpound should only be used if you know how to use it.

For the guy thats just getting into this...

Wash the car, then claybar after (follow the intructions, easy to use, DO NOT DROP IT ON THE GROUND)

Use meguiars scratch X on places where swirl marks and scratches are present, if the car is really bad, do the whole car with it. If you still have scratches after the meguiars scratch x application, you'll probably need to see a pro that can use a rubbing compound to buff it out. That ususally means your scratches are deeper than the clearcoat. :ph34r:

after that, apply a good polishing agent, I use meguiars or mothers, and an orbital buffer.

I ususally give it a day or so to get all the dust and stuff off, then follow up with some wax. Wax wont really make it shine, its more for protection than anything, its the prwevious step (ploishing) that will get your shine.

OR....go see meford, he does wetsanding and you just cant beat a good wetsanding. His detailing work on the focus is amazing.
