Guys my truck is covered in spider swirls. I guess it got washed wrong a couple times and now I'm paying for it whenever I look at it in direct sunlight. The paint itself is in immaculate condition but the clear coat has good spider webbing. Will a good machine buff and wax get this out? Thanks!

Yep, as long as you pay attention and go slow. Contact one of the Adam's guys on the forum to get you hooked up.

A proper buffing will make it look brand new.

Just wrap it and be done with it. Yes, you can buff it out but eventually the swirls will be back. Wrap it and the wrap will always protect your car.

I have thought about it many times... Do you know where I would do this, personally? I am moving to Phoenix in about a month. I would be willing to spend no more than 1500-2000 on this though. Is it really worth it?

Yup a polisher and some good swirl remover from Adams and it will come right out.

Do u wash it yourself? If so do a two bucket wash to help with not making new swirls. Also use a very good/ soft drying towel.

I do wash it myself and I normally do use a two bucket method. I got antsy one day and had to get clay off without washing it and I basically washed a dirty truck with a dirty rag. Stupid of me but I learned my lesson -.-

you're moving to phoenix soon?

ignore the spider swirls. Put desert pinstripes across the truck and you won't even notice spider swirls anymore

I can't say I know what those are but they sound bad!

Yes, machine polishing is what it will take to remove those defects in your paint.

Once you have them fixed, then proper wash technique/materials will keep them from coming back. Any time you touch your paint, you run the risk of inducing swirls/scratches, so using high quality wash pads/mitts and towels will keep you from having to polish more often than necessary.
