i went about car last week did -wash -clay bar all over -t-cut polish -waxed the swirls were there before & after so what ever i did hasn't helped, has made the colour of paint alot deeper tho and now shines deep green, so was worht while if i do the scratch x, will i need to redo wax afterwards? any tips on applying it? small circles, big circles, no circles?
