But in the sun, it’s very nicely filled with swirls and scratches.<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/b4/001.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/b4/002.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Close up pics<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/b4/003.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/b4/003.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Washed n Clayed:<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/b4/005.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/b4/005a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/b4/005b.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Lacking definition, dull, no depth<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/b4/nodefn2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/b4/nodefn1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/b4/nodefn.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The ride’s best companions, swirls and scratchesVertical panels<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/swirls/swirl1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/swirls/swirl1a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Vertical panels<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/swirls/swirl2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/swirls/swirl4.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/swirls/swirl3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/swirls/swirl6.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The hood and the top<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/swirls/swirl10h.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Close-up<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/swirls/swirl7.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/swirls/swirl11h.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Other paint defects <img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/swirls/swirl5.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/swirls/swirl8a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/swirls/swirl8b.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />calling the <img src="https://zerotohundred.com/forums/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/driver.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":driver:" title="Driver    :driver:" data-shortname=":driver:" /> <img src="https://zerotohundred.com/forums/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/nurse.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":nurse:" title="Nurse    :nurse:" data-shortname=":nurse:" />---------- Post added at 09:11 PM ---------- 6 hour anti-bump limit - Previous post was at 09:07 PM ----------PolishingI started with a test section on the hood, Makita, Menz 203s on LC white pad. Very little effect!I moved to Menz PG on LC wool polishing pad. Results were nicer and less holograms than foam. Then, I found the swirls and scratches were hiding other defects such as long RDS, pits, and orange peel. I stepped down to Menz 203s on LC white with Flex DA. Results were superb, clear definition, no holograms and swirls, the deep RDS remained but were almost unnoticeable. Only the hood I refined with Flex, PO85rd on LC black. This was the most battered part.<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/polishing/Polish.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/Toyota%20Vitz00/polishing/polish1a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Deep RDS remain, but they’re not easy to capture.
