My Ranger's a 2012 and is in really nice shape and I want to keep it that way. Looking straight on, the finish is very good with a deep, clear shine. In the right light and angle though, I can see minor scratches, swirl marks, mars, etc in the gel. I'm pretty anal with my stuff and with winter boredom setting in along with a heated garage, I'd like to remove these marks. I have a Porter Cable random orbit polisher with different grades of foam pads I bought from Autogeek and used the orange pad (supposedly the aggressive one) along with Meguiars ultimate compound and it helped some but not enough to my liking. Do I need to use a wool pad rather than foam? I have an old rotary buffer too.....is that better to remove these type of marks than my Porter Cable? Lastly, what is the best compound to use for this? When done, I'll apply a couple coats of Protec to seal it up. Any tips will be appreciated.
