Default Best Polish & Wax For Hand Application.

Title says it all... don't have a PC as of yet, but want to put some shine into my car until I can set aside the cash for one.

Just the usual surface scractches in the finish from everyday use. Nothing too major.

Going to wash the car and clay it... but need advice on good products for hand use from there (a polish and wax or sealant). Want to fill in/remove those spider-web type scratches.

Thanks.

Default IMO, You just cant beat the bang-for-the-effort of Klasse AIO and SG

They work great by hand, and the results are great.

Thanks for the tip. What can I use to remove light scratches as AIO/SG just covers them?

Default honestly, by hand, removing swirls is tough work,

it usually takes several applications to really start to get at them and that can really suck. Most of the effective swirl removers are best used with a PC.

I use the Klasse twins then follow up with Menzerna FMJ for 1 or 2 coats, fantastic look on Northern Blue.

Default Gulf States Toyota(Texas) sells a bottle titled "Vehicle Protection Package".

Its a sealant/cleaner that my Chevy dealer here in Pa. supplied with my 1979 Corvette! The car was black and this stuff was/is amazing at removing swirls. I have used it ever since then. Their # is 800-444-1074. They will sell it by the bottle or case.
