Hello everyone,

I have a new Ford Edge ST with Rapid red (metallic flake) paint that needs to be cleaned and protected. I have most of the products required for the job other than polish. Since the vehicle is new, it has minimal to no defects to correct. Which polish/pad combos would be best to use to clean and add gloss before applying a protectant? What are some of your go to products for this situation?

FYI - I will be using a Flex 3401.

BTW - I am not interested in an AIO.


Thanks for you input.



(edit) I did find an old bottle (at least 7 years old) of Menzerna Micro Polish PO 85RD in my cabinet. Will that work or are there some newer/better products to try?

I have been very fond of Optimum Hyper Polish with a white LC pad for new vehicles. Excellent product and very user friendly.
