The SSR range is great stuff. Start with SSR1 as Rob suggests and you can work up to SSR2 and SSR2.5 if required. Personally, if applying by hand, I would just jump straight in with SSR2 as working by hand doesnt really work the polish hard. One of the benefits of SSR is it doesnt have fillers, so when you get rid of the swirls, they are gone, not just hidden until you wash the car
Yep, and then use either White Diamond or Black Hole glaze. Gives an amazing finish IMO.
