thanks

 

Sorry .. hire a detailer or put out the money for the pads & buffer ... nothing by hand will remove the swirls.

 

You're best bet is probably just to save up slowly and get what you need. It's either that or use that money to have it professionally detailed like Dale suggested.

 

You CAN make a difference though, by hand. Now its not the difference were used to with a machine, but it an improvement. Without machine help, concentrate on protection, and cleanliness. Swirl removal can come later after you get that home, and your 1 yr old's not tugging at your pant legs. (Mind you I have a 21, 18, and 15 yr old, and I still dont have time, lol)
Theres polishes, glazes, protectants and hand applicators that you can be very successful with. Just dont expect a machine finish miracle......
