Swirls - Nissan Murano

darrick04 · 12-21-2006, 12:58 PM

My paint is hampered by tons of swirls in it... This was a condition, that I bought the Murano in.. You only notice it in the BRIGHT sun, but it isn't pretty.

My question, are there any natural agents or even synthetic ones that can remove these swirls in the paint? I saw where it could be taken out, on maxima.org, but I have since left that site, and don't know where to begin, with finding that answer.

Thanks in advance for any help

Zaino has two products that are designed to remove swirl marks.

Z-PC Fusion Dual Action Paint Cleaner Swirl Remover

Z-5 PRO Show Car Polish for Swirl Marks and Fine Scratches

Tried Z-5. Did not work very well for me.

Z5 is designed to hide, not remove, minor swirl damage. It works good on MINOR swirl damage.

You put on successive coats. If after putting on 3 coats you are still not satisfied..........put on 3 more.
If you still are not satisfied then you need to do two things:
1-Buy something to remove, not hide, swirls. Your swirls are too deep to be hidden.
2-Figure out how you got the swirls on there in the first place and don't do that again.

I've never used Z-PC.

thanks everyone.. for all the links, very useful information!

the 3m rubbing compound removes swirls. it lightly sands down the clear coat. everything u use to rub on the paint will cause swirls, some more than others
