It's officially carwash season. The sun's out, you're rocking sandals, and your summer ride's paint swirls are, unfortunately, still there. These swirls and defects—easily caused by contaminants in your wash cloths—often seem to magically appear. So how do you get rid of them?

Dual Action Variable Speed Polisher Meguiar's $349.00 $234.80 (33% off) SHOP NOW

Thankfully, you can do some simple paint correction right in your garage and avoid that hefty bill from the paint shop. But you need the right tools to do it—and "right tools" usually means expensive. Luckily, Meguiar's is having a sale on one of these essential tools. Their variable-speed polisher is discounted at 33%, saving you nearly $120.

Featuring soft-start technology and a billet counterweight, the polisher is easy to use for detailing novices and professionals alike. At the base of the tool is a thumb-variable speed dial for adjusting the orbits-per-minute rotation speed from 3000 to 7500, allowing you to totally control your polishing technique.

Be aware that this is just the tool, though, and it won't get you very far on your swirl-deleting adventures on its own. You will need to add some sort of compound and applicator pads separately. But once you collect all that, you're well on your way to getting that paint job back up to snuff. If you're a newbie, definitely check out some YouTube videos on the process and tips on best practices.

So if you're looking to upgrade your polishing skills, this particular tool from Meguiar's is a fantastic choice—especially since it's on sale. We don't know how long it'll be discounted, but it might be a good idea to jump on it soon. Your ride will look brand new in your driveway and at the car shows this summer, and that's what it's all about.
