    Ultima Paint Prep Plus Gloss level?

    Do you know of anybody that has some experience using a machine with this light polish? http://www.autogeek.net/ultima-paint-prep-bundle.html

    As a finishing polish will it give me a finish comparable to a Menzerna finish polish?

    Most importantly: If I was to use it after the Menzerna Super Finish (Nano) could I end up reducing the gloss of my finish??? The reason I ask is UPPP says it has primers in it to help the UPGP sealant . This is the reason I want to use it again.

    Info:
    2008 Red Saturn Sky
    Paint in good condition, very tiny micro scratches only seen up real close in good light, also a couple water spot traces and 1 or 2 "real" scratches.
    Hand polished and sealed with this system about 4 months ago. planning for next seal in about 2 months.
    Getting ready to buy a DA (probably Griots) and some Menzerna or WG polish for use with my Ultima Sealant system.



    Thank you,
    :dancebanana:

    Re: Ultima Paint Prep Plus Gloss level?

    I don't use UPPP as a finish polish, I use it as a final paint cleaner and to lay down a good base coat for UPGP to bond to. To the best of my knowledge UPPP does not have any abrasives in it so it won't any abrasive polishing for you like Super Finish would.

    I would still finish your polishing procedure with Super Finish or a similar finishing polish. Clean the paint off by washing or ISO wipedown and then use UPPP give the paint a thorough cleaning and give UPGP a good base to bond to.
