    also to add to guz's post, the BOSS creams and pads have flexibility so you can use the different pads and creams together...

    HD Polish with a white Buff & Shine pad. Follow that up with a Buff & Shine red pad and HD Poxy. Fantastic, easy products to work with and deliver great results!

    If your paint is indeed in good condition I found my last Toyota paint responded well to OPT Poliseal. You could use this and top with OPT Spray wax for additional easy protection.
    The Poliseal is easy to use and takes out mild marks. The spray wax is one of the quickest, easiest to use spray waxes out there.


    Optimum Poli-Seal, Polymer sealant, polish sealant

    Optimum Car Wax is a spray wax made with real carnauba and synthetic paint sealants for protection & shine! high-grade carnauba wax and silicone

    Yes, the Menzerna 3500 should be fine )but I suggest a white polishing pad if you own a RO buffer). You'll need to seal it when you are done polishing it.

    Re: Help With Deciding on a Polish

    Magnetic gray metallic is great! A fairly hard paint in my experience with it. My wife's 2013 rav4 is this color and I just yesterday finished polishing with Menzerna 3800/black pad and sealing with WGDGPS. Only a few very minor swirls and mineral deposit etching after 3 years of daily driving with proper washing ( 99% Waterless or Rinseless) For the spot repairs I used FG400 and a LC orange flat pad ( white wasn't cutting it) and the mineral etching I had to used a yellow LC pad. I didn't have any success with the 3800/white pad removing and defects.

    Since yours is already defect free I would say 3500 or 3800 topped with Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant will give it great gloss!

    Wow Boudin, that looks great!

    I can see what looks like pile of used Gold Plush Jr's in the reflection where the license plate should be.

    Re: Help With Deciding on a Polish

    Haven't used as many different polishes as most on here, but I've never found a reason to step away from M205 + M21 or Ultimate Wax.

    Forgot to add Meguiar's M80 is terrific for darks if you can find some.

    I always go back to M205/Ultimate Polish, and M21/ULW.

    I've tried quite a few other makers, but Megs is tough to beat.
