I recently had my 2009 Acura TSX in crystal black pearl full corrected but also know that due to the soft paint and the fact that it's a daily driver and spends most of its time out in the Alabama sun it will need a light correction probably every 1/2 to full year. I have a preference for the Cyclo Pro-5 polisher to do most of the work. Also, I will probably do 2 costs of Blackfire Black Ice for the LSP protection. Which fine swirl remover/polish which you recommend for the light correcting duties. From my research I've narrowed it down to the Wolfgang or Pinnancle Natural Brilliance twins. Thoughts?

I'd say they are neck and neck. For light corrections the Pinnacle swirl remover and advanced finishing polish work beautifully!

Grab the pinnacle kit and a bottle of Meg's M105 for those tough areas and you'll be good to go!

I use to own a 2010 TSX in the same color. I used the Pinnacle twins and the combo worked great for a full correction; but when I use to do a six month correction I would only use M205 with the tangerine pad. Results were flawless each time.

I'm a bit of a newbie but I thought M105/205 were kinda notorious for dusting and being difficult to work with. Ease of use will be key as I look to hone my skill. Nothing like getting frustrated with a difficult to use product.

Just as a point of reference here is the before/after pics of the full correction last week using a combo of Adams Polishes and some products from Shine Supply with a Flex 3401. This was done by a pro/friend of mine.

M105, yes it's a little tough to work with but is easily remedied with a spritz of distilled water here and there!
M205 is a joy to work with. Long working time, no dust, and easily wipes clean!

I assume I would use a white foam pad on the cycle for the M105? Would an IPA wipe be necessary before Blackfire Black Ice application?

Shine Supply Classic Cut is the BOMB!! Which Shine Supply product did he use?

For a newb, stay away from M105! Great cut and finish, but too hard to work with.

I believe he used classic cut for the compounding after the wet sand on the hood and roof and then the Adams 2 step polishes on everything else.

I bought a premixed bottle of Shine Supply Hyper Shine tire dressing from him and love it!

I own a silver TSX and used M205 with a white pad for my first correction and had great results. I now have the Wolfgang twins and will be trying them soon.
M205 or the WG twins should be enough to maintain you car once or twice a year.
