Looking for opinions on a finishing polish

[dieselfan1]

New truck 2022 Silverado.
Black.
I had a quick chance to hit it with some Blackfire One Step last week to get rid of the dealer installed blemishes.
Looks pretty good but I know there's more shine ,etc. there to be had.
Next week I have three or four days free to bring it back in my small but heated garage.
What's a good finishing polish/cream and why do you like it?
Probably going to top it with Blackfire BlackICE Hybrid Liquid Wax since I have almost a full bottle. Then go over it with Dream Maker of course.
Thanks guys

Sounds like a job for Blackfire Polish.

I've never used it, but if the Blackfire line is working for you in general, it should fit right in.

I'm a big fan of Essence. Super high gloss, surprisingly versatile depending on your pad choice, and wipes off super easily. Love it. I've used it with everything from a wool pad to a black finishing pad.

You can put whatever you want on top of it, doesn't have to be a coating. I've put all sorts of waxes/sealants on top with no issues.

I'd give ya a recommendation as I have a black "21.....but I haven't even polished it yet....LOL

Blackfire polishes are good, but I'd also recommend the Griots BOSS line. Depending on the hardness of the paint either the Correcting Cream as a mid-grade polish, or the Perfecting Cream will serve you well in improving gloss.

EDIT: Corrected the names of the Griots products

I’d say either CarPro Essence/Reflect, Rupes Uno Pure, Griot’s Perfecting Cream, or Menzerna 3500/3800 for jeweling. I’ve used all of those and I find myself reaching for Griot’s the most with Rupes and Menzerna runner ups. CarPro is great but I don’t see enough difference to justify the additional cost though if I was only using it for personal cars, it is a great one too.

I 2nd the Menzerna 3500

Have had good success with Scholl S30+ finishing polish on my black car. Seems to excel on soft paint, which I’m not sure yours is as I’m not familiar with that car.

I just ordered a bottle of Griots Perfecting Cream. It should be what I'm looking for.
Thanks for the recommendation

I should add that I'm going to use a Porter Cable 7424xp, with Lake Country 5.5" blue flat pads for the Griots Perfecting Cream. Then black flat pads for the Blackfire BlackICE Hybrid Liquid Wax.
Sound good??
