Normally polishing by hand is worthless since you won't be able to do enough polishing to get out swirl marks or anything, but on yellow swirls don't really show, so a little hand polish can bring back some shine and prep it for wax. Looks good!

Tell me about it. I spent 90 minutes last night polishing my trunk and Driver/Passenger quarter panels and I still see tons of swirl marks and surface scratches. I need to invest in a PC. My arm can't take much more.

thanks everyone. yeah, yellow isnt a hard color to clean up-
but then again, there is NO comparison to a very clean yellow car, to a very clean black car.
yeah, yellow looks good clean, but darker colors look way better to me.

Yeah. My Cobra was Zinc, and my GT is black. Nothing beats a clean black car, but it sure was nice having the Cobra that I could go weeks, actually months without cleaning (mainly because I only drove it when it was nice).
