Go up-down-side to side twice slowly , wipe it off and see if it looks better. That’s all there is to it. I use a couple pads per car. Usually changing around the back bumper.

Then do it as many times as necessary until you get the proper finish that you like. Then wipe the whole car down with 25% alcohol or eraser, apply your sealant or wax, and go have fun and worry about something else.

If you’re still paranoid, go do your wife’s trunk or your friends car door…

An excellent all purpose polish that is totally safe:

Good info. CarPro Essence... Which one? It looks like there are a few different variants of it. Or, is there something else to potentially use instead?
