Default Paint correction advice

Hi guys and girls,

Looking to doing the Scooby and am bewildered by the amount of product on the market!
The paintwork is in pretty good condition but am noticing the usual scratches and swirls now especially in direct sunlight.

What would people recommend as a good correction combination of pad (6" / 6.5") and compound.
I have used the chemical guys V36 on the roof and bonnet before which seemed OK if a little to non abrasive, I know Japanese cars tend to have softer paint so don't want to compromise it!

Thanks!
Simon

Lots of threads about personal choice on this one - have a trawl through and see what people use and what works for them...

For me I have used chem guys v36 and v38 with some success, and now use menzerna products..

With a DA polisher you should be fine in terms of soft paint - if ur going to wet sand then that's something different altogether and Need to ask someone like pieman (Ron) for his advise...

Hope that gives some help
