    No, there is no "real" way other than machine polishing.

    Car shampoo

    Might indeed be the one. I'm not here to point fingers but some of the schemes in the detailing industry are crazy.

    Car shampoo

    This is spot on, now a days all you need is good marketing rather than the actual product. Most products that are developed well will be hidden in the current market if they have poor marketing skills. A few "higher end" companies out there and one similar to a country specifically is a prime...

    Car shampoo

    Yeah, it's crazy. A lot of guides, tutorials and such would have you to lead to believe that it removes it. It can be confusing because the fairy liquid actually forms a thin layer over your wax giving the impression that there's no wax.

    Car shampoo

    I'm not. The only proper way it can be removed is machine polishing. People think fairy liquid removes wax, it doesn't.

    Car shampoo

    No shampoo will remove that. The wax bonds to the paintwork. The only proper way is to remove it via machine polisher or wait until the wax wears off.

    swirls, scratches and tears

    With the Audi paint work tending to generally be hard I doubt you've cost this from 1 wash. What most likely happened is when the car was transported or maybe even they did wash it without you knowing. Anyway with you applying Srp it contains fillers which basically fill the swirls in so you may...

    Supagard vs Professional detail?

    Technically it should, a sealant will provide a form of protection from the elements including tree sap but that's not to say you should leave it sitting on it or not care about it, a proper ceramic sealant would provide even better protection.

    Supagard vs Professional detail?

    To be 100% honest buddy, for the amount they charge for coatings like that it's really not worth it, the detailers who work in the garage aren't given enough time for each vehicle and have to rush them so the job not being the best. Go to a good detailer and they will give you a better package...
