I have realized what I did wrong the last time I used my PC on the car and since I ran of out daylight I had to cut it short. I cut most of the swirls out by need to really follow up with my polishing compounds and finally try out that sealant.

I live a 10 minute walk from the ocean and it really cools down at night so if I don't cover it I end up having a really dirty car after literally one night of being outside since it gets covered in dew. I know you're not the biggest fan of them but for me I really find them useful and now that I have had literally 5 different ones between my two cars I know the best practice with them.

Also, for me it helps to make my cars less noticeable to passerby's. I have two really modified cars sitting in my driveway with some valuable parts on them so if I can at least hide them when I am asleep or away it gives me some piece of mind
when i did the sealant i used my 6" orbital for the hood, doors, and roof, and my 3" for the a-pillar (to all the way back on the sides of the roof), the sills, and rear. it wasn't too bad for me. i didnt do the front as it has clear bra so i just sprayed Prima Hydro (polymer) on it as i usually do after a wash.

as for covers, yah ive lived in LA long time ago so i know wat you mean by dust. it's like living next to a construction zone.


im going to be doing the sealant on my white 09 probably sat morning.
