What polishing steps/products are sold at the local auto supply that are suitable for polishing up, by hand, a gloss finish?
In this case, water-based EnduroVar?

Noone in town carries Menzerna, but I'm sure there are equally good products that ARE generally available??

Help!!

I used "Wizards" products to rub out and polish "Target" WB lacquer.

I used some products found at my local autoparts store for my first 3 guitars. The first had a WB-finish on the top. All of the rest have been lacquer.
Steps (after curing of course):
1. Turtlewax Rubbing Compound
2. Turtlewax Polishing Compound
3. Meguiar's ScatchX 2.0 Fine Scratch Remover
4. Lastly, for that extra glossy-ness, I used a very light coat of a good liquid car wax.
