Correct steps

[Mystical.Snail]

I am looking at the wide range of products you can buy and was wondering if this is the correct steps...

Wash -> Wash again -> Clay bar -> Scratch n swirl treatment -> Polish -> Glaze -> Sealant?

If thats correct can someone recomenet a very good product for each set?

Much appreciated!

My Audi A6 is silver by the way

Read THIS M.Snail.

Let me know if it's of any use to you..

I'd: Wash > Claybar > Re-Wash > Polish (which is the 'scratch n swirl treatment) > Glaze and Protect (be it a wax or sealant)

Read the Merc SL600 AMG report I've just posted for a better understanding of the processes.

There are several decent online shops you can buy kit from - for starters, check out the Audi-Sport.net sponsors, Polished Bliss

For your silver Audi, I'd reccomend going down the Jeffs Werkstat route (again, check Polished Bliss for more details..)

These are my results using werkstat on silver mate, it's highly recommended.

I am geussing that kit will help swirl marks...? Im catching on slowly but...is Prime = scratch n swirl, Gloss = ...Gloss, and Jett = Sealant?

Thankyou again

No mate, prime has only a very mild cut, if any. You will need a decent polish to remove swirls, especially if doing it by hand. Read the guides with the products on the PB website. I have Menzerna polishes and the reults by machine are spectacular, (i didnt have the machine when i did the golf, that was by hand).
If you have the werkstat kit the process goes Wash - clay - wash - polish - prime - jett trigger.
Glos if for use after subsequent washes to keep up the shine.
