Re: what is the best finishing polish "hands down" in your opinion???
sweet car! Black was always my favorite color before i even knew what detailing was so now when i see a black car up close it looks horrible! lol Its funny. I have a blue metallic car now, you can see wash marks if you look hard but it won't punch you in the face like black.
Black is still my favorite color but for a daily it would be very frustrating to maintain.

That good to hear the nano polishes from Dr Beasleys work well. I still use 205 maybe I’ll try Dr B

Re: what is the best finishing polish "hands down" in your opinion???
Not to bump this to the top again but...
Old detailer that used to stock up on what I really liked in the past and then quit detailing for money about 10 years ago and some of my staples have lasted me a really long time. Finally out of my old finishing / jeweling polish of choice which was Menzerna PO85RD.
I believe the latest iteration equivalent to the PO85RD is SF3800 but curious if anyone can confirm...or even remembers what 85RD was? :-)
Leaning towards Essence as an alternative as everything I own and work on now has cQuartz uk 3.0 on it. Talk of essence has been missing in this thread for a few years now too.
Anything else on the market that's new technology that I should be considering as a jeweling polish for soft paints that will be coated?
Thanks

Re: what is the best finishing polish "hands down" in your opinion???
Not really responding to the OP question from 2016 but my current winner for "best" final polish is Sonax Perfect Finish.
Now...as waxmaster pointed out very early on in this thread, I haven't tried 100's of products to derive my answer. I have tried many in the past 25 years and PF is the most effective for a wide range of applications.
To me the winner would be a product you use as a 1 step and get both some cut but more importantly finish.

3D ONE fits that bill with outstanding results.

Essence is nice. If doing coatings maybe look into DR Beasley’s primer polishes.

Re: what is the best finishing polish "hands down" in your opinion???
I've been playing with 3D One and REALLY like that too. When it comes down to a relatively quick 1 step on a non metallic black customer vehicle I reach for Perfect Finish basically because of familiarity and combined pad behavior.
In my experience that's what it comes down to for me i.e. familiarity and experience with products. I think i've simply logged the most hours with Sonax. I know i'll be playing more with 3D One.
I played with Essence and agree, it's very good. Again, i've not used it enough for it to displace PF.
Most of the allegiance I have for Sonax PF is it's wide versatility and the results I get on a wide range of paints.
I will ALWAYS be receptive to someone elses comments and "favorites" on this forum. That's what I love about AG.

Since Essence has some ceramic fillers, easy to say it’s not intended prior to PPF?
