I am wanting to try some of the California Customs polish. Id like to find some local to me and so far no luck. Ive tried the auto parts stores and truck stops. I may just have to order some.

Autozone does have the chemical guys heavy polish. Ive never ised it before.

They have the 2 pack online for $35.99 Same day delivery. It’s telling me if I order it it’ll be here by 5pm. You know where I’m talking about.

That Chemical Guys isn’t going the be any different.

It sounds like you need to try a different approach. At least with this you give yourself a fighting chance. Do it for science. We all want to know if it works.

I did. Any specific instructions other than on the label?

The Purple Polish arrived late yesterday. Using only the new polish, the results were very similar to what I already had going on. Like someone mentioned earlier in the thread, the porous texture is from some type of surface pitting/oxidation/rock chips or something. I am going to have to do some more extensive sanding and try to polish after that. The purple polish did bring out a nice shine. To me, it seemed very similar to white diamond, without the vanilla smell.

Thanks for the replies and suggestions

So you didn’t use step 1 of the 2 step process? Fanatastic!!!

I used both the green deoxidizer and the polish. What I meant was the only change from what I was doing before was the polish.
