Okay, so I read all of the detailing information on this site and made sure I had some Blackfire Crystal Sealant waiting so I could immediately seal the car once I brought it home from the dealer (last week). I cleaned up some of the little water spots that were left on the car from the dealer wash (I told them not to do a full wash, just basically a rinse) and then applied the Blackfire.

I was amazed with the results - really easy and really looked great!. Well the other day I was outside and it was very sunny and I'm not sure if it was that I didn't have sunglasses on or maybe it was that I didn't have my contacts in, but I noticed some swirl marks. Looks like, despite my direction, someone at the dealer was hitting it with an orbital on the fascia and the hood.

My question is - now that I have one layer of the Blackfire on, do I need to take it off to polish out the swirls or can I just polish over it? If I do have to take it off, what removes it?

Dawn diswashiing detergent removes it to start over.

Great, thanks Glen! I figured it is so durable that it probably took more than that. Good to know.

And you should use a orbital polisher to remove the swirls, the dealer most likely used a roterey polisher that created the swirls

Really sucks that the dealers don't listen to explicit instruction. I told my dealer not to touch the car as I was concerned about scratches from washing with a dirty cloth. He said he would just rinse it. Then I was on my way to pick it up and he calls me to tell me their are scratches in it because they used a towel to dry it off. WTF! This was in March and I am still pissed. They just don't get it!! Anyway, the car is awesome and thanks to Glen, looks perfect.

Yeah they never listen...mine didn't wash it like I requested, thank God, but requested to leave all plastic on seats, they took them all off! Car arrived on the hauler, got the call the truck was there, was at the dealer shortly, but they still beat me to the punch!
