The story so far:
I have applied about 15 coats of Colortone water based brushing varnish to my mandola and have been looking for ways to make it shine. I have seen Meguiar's swirl remover recommended here a few times and so with that in mind I went to my local automobile accessories shop to purchase some. They had a large range of meguiar's products but not the swirl remover.
The chap behind the counter told me that most meguiar's products contain silicon and the Mothers range of products contained no silicon. He told me that Mothers micro-polishing glaze had no silicon in it so I bought a bottle.
I applied a bit to a small area of the back of the mandola and sure enough it produced a lovely shine. Then I noticed that the polished bit squeaked when it came into contact with the carpet on my bench. In my experience (limited though it is) squeak means silicon. I may well be wrong.
Does anyone have experience with this stuff? If so, does it contain silicon?
Thanks in advance.
