After a night's effort polishing my car......

[selmer]

So I was bored tonight so I went to wash and HAND POLISH my TT, tried my very very best to remove swirl.

Guess what? I will tell you what.

I SWARE I WILL NEVER WASTE MONEY ON HAND POLISHING STUFFS AND I WILL NEVER DO HAND POLISH FOREVER!!!

go and buy a proper polish machine or call for a detailer!!

What was the problem? You couldn't get the results you wanted or was it just too much work?

Selmer, As you found out, your Audi has a very hard clear. It is difficult to remove defects via hand polishing on the softer clears.

after spending one an a half hour claying and polishing the hatch, swirls are still there,

yeah, like gmblack3 said, our car's clear coat is too stiff for hand polishing,

I know this because I hand polished my friend's Corolla and the result aren't bad!

There are a lot of people that have difficulty polishing Audi clear WITH a polisher, so I can see why you had less than stellar results by hand.

I'd say that a PC investment is in your future...

Good luck.

PC with a wool pad and some compound ftw

you need a machine polisher if you want real results
