Hi all,
Ive been doing some paint restoration on an old titan i bought, I got some Rupes Blue heavy cut compound and when paired with a microfiber pad ... WOW it just removed those swirls like they were never there. I followed up with a brand x polish (not sold at AG) and I was ... ok with it. Ive also used Meguiars 205, and Car pro essence (didnt really get to use much, still have the bottle but its over a year old)
I just bought a brand new 2023 VW GLI in white. It predictably has some swirls in the paint. I have a Gtechnic exo/Crystal kit i am going to apply to the car. Before I do, i want to make the paint flawless.
All this to say, I need a polish recommendation. The rupes ultra compound really impressed me, I know they also have Yellow polish and white ultra finish.
Is the Yellow a good option for finishing? I use Rupes yellow pads all the time but have never used the polish.
Do i need the white instead? VW paint is pretty hard, so dont know if the white would do anything.
Should I use the essence i have (if its still any good) I know its low cut, so not sure if itll do the job.
Is there a better option?
