Now i want to polish and wax it to protect it the car is a moonstone saff. I have dodo rainforest wax and lime prime pre wax and sour power shampoo.

but i'm a bit unsure on what polish to use, due to it being new paint(2k) the re are no major swirls in the paint.

I have meguires part 2 polish but reading on here people say its shit.

I have access to a machine polisher (rota)

Thanks in advance fro any advise or tips,

Phil

if it has minor swirls you can machine polish it but i would only use something like 3M ultrafina on a black or blue 3m pad to just eliminate the swirls and give it a deep glossy shine.
Then apply the wax of choice to look after the finish.The meguires polish is good for the machine i.e 205/105 etc but the hand stuff is not so good
