Alright, heres the deal. I'm a motivated diy kind of dude that wants to do my own detail work on my jet black 335. Never used a buffer before but I'm a fast learner. Considering the 7424xp cause it seems to be the most forgiving and need to know what supplies I should buy. Moderate to minor surface scratches that I want to correct and I'm very concerned about the hazing you get with dark cars in certain light with a bad buff job. Experts please help a brother out

meguiars D300/mf cutting discs
Menzerna 203 and hydro tec tangerine pad
menzerna sf4500 and LC black pad

if you want more cut -
megs 105 with surbuf
menzerna SIP with white pad
menzerna 106 with black pad

all with a 5.5" pad and speed 6 on the pcxp is what I do day in and day out with full correction jobs.

If I were to go this same route, are there certain techniques to prevent swirl marks and get rid of them? I would love to learn to detail my cars the correct way.

you are not going to get buffer trails or "swirls" with a DA polisher. If you do, you need to put it down and let someone else take care of the car because you are doing something very wrong.

The new Meguires microfiber pads and polish are a very good start. It's a quality product, especially for the amateur
