    Can someone give me polish recommendations for an almost new rossa corsa 458?

    I have a 458 headed my way with only 2,400 miles on it, so almost new. I'm planning to order the Rupes LHR 15ES machine and am stuck on what polishes to order. I'd like to order today when the discount codes are active. Thinking either Sonax or Menzerna.

    Does anyone have a good recommendation given the car I'll be working on?

    It's hard to go wrong with Menzerna.

    The Rupes machine are a system approach. I’d say b4 you Venture off to other products to stick with the Rupes polishes andvtry those!

    The Rupes kit includes Rupes Quarz Gloss Medium Gel Compound and Rupes Keramik Gloss Fine Gel Polish with a green and yellow pad. Do you think those are appropriate for this car? Maybe follow with Chemical Guys Black Light Hybrid Radiant Finish and Blackfire Paint Sealant?


    Or some Menzerna alternative?

    Sounds like a good starting point to me.

    Stick with the Rupes yellow pad and the yellow topped polish. Easy. I wouldn’t bother with fine polish, but do a test spot first to see which one corrects the best.

    Personally, I'd ceramic coat it. Easy as polish just in multiple steps. GYEON Syncro and thank me later.

    Why not invest in the LHR15 MKII. Sonax Cut Max and EX 04-06 would be great polishes to use with it. The Rupes yellow pad is a nice pad to own.
