| | | There are multiple finishing glazes and finishing polishes that will help make your paint drip "wetness".
Clearkote VM, Clearkote RMG, Poorboys 1.0 SSR, XMT Finishing Glaze, Wolfgang Finishing Glaze, Menzerna FPII.
The idea is using them correctly. Light jeweling of the paint, with a finishing pad as needed. They will work well provided you have done the proper prep first. That includes properly polishing with more abrasive pad/polish combo's as needed to first remove all swirls. The real benefit to 066 from Menzerna is it breaks down from an aggressive polish to a finishing polish in one step, but you still can reduce pad abbrasiveness and to gem the surface. |

Would you still have to use two pads, one to cut and the other to jewel or could you do it all in one step? |

You could stop there, but a quick jeweling with a finishing pad rocks. And if no swirls, just using 066 and finishing pad from the start. WOW !! |

The XMT has carnauba in it and will
cause bonding problems for a sealant. The Wolfgang is sealant friendly. |
